This web site is brought to you by teachers Mike Trinklein and Steve Boettcher, creators of The Oregon Trail, the award-winning documentary film which aired nationally on PBS. During the three years we spent researching the film, we found lots of great material we thought would be great for teachers and home schoolers--so we built this this web site to make it all available. Enjoy the adventure! Copyright c. 2012 by Boettcher+Trinklein Inc. Contact us at mike@btmedia.us <p style="text-align:right;color:#A8A8A8"></p>
