National Oregon Trail Museum, Montpelier Idaho
This video was produced in 1992 by Dr. Edward F. Kelley, a physicist who was working at Idaho State University, in Pocatello, Idaho, for a short time. It was a public-service effort credited toward ISU, but ISU had nothing to do with it. The video apparently helped Montpelier, Idaho, actually get the museum built at the location described. It is made available for those interested in the application of computer animation back in the days of DOS machines in the late 1980s and early 1990s using prosumer equipment. The live video was captured with a Canon A1 Hi-8 camcorder, and this digital copy was made from an old VHS tape.

The 4th and final episode of our epic overland journey across the California Emigrant Trail begins in the state of Idaho and over at the National Oregon/California Trail Center. It would be here that we'd get to time travel back to the mid 1800's and experience what it was like to be an emigrant pulling into Clover Creek or what is now known today as, Montpelier. From there, we made our way over to Soda Springs and marveled at the geysers and took a draw from the naturally carbonated waters gushing from its many springs. After making a stop over at Register rock, we worked our way to the City of Rocks and setup camp for the night. The follow day, we made our way briefly into Utah, crossed into Nevada and worked our way out to places like Stony Point, Iron point before and even made a stop at a Transcontinental Airway Beacon before our trek to the west came to an end.
A VERY SPECIAL THANKS goes out to our good friends Tony, Stephanie, Tina, Carl, Toni, Et, Joe, Don, Lori, Ray, Kevin, Tom, Susan, Ken and Doug for joining us on this epic adventure! We love you guys.
