The wagon train crossed Utah across the Great Basin Desert in Nevada. They made a wrong turn on got trapped in Death Valley. After exiting they crossed the Mojave Desert into Southern California. Still wanting to go to the California Gold Country. The group used the southern Desert part of the Old Spanish Trail, after hearing about the death of the Donner Party. Some of the party died on the near the camp and the suffering gave the place the name Death Valley. John Haney Rogers was one of the men that departed the valley on foot and came back with help. John Haney Rogers and William Lewis Manly walked 250 miles across the Mojave Desert to Rancho San Fernando near Los Angeles, California. They found a route out of the valley for those trapped in Death Valley. At Rancho San Fernando received food and horses from Mexican villagers to take back and save the party. The group then traveled to Rancho San Francisco. The group had split up in the valley, the other group was the Jayhawkers, stay with their original plan of traveling west out of the valley. Both groups were stuck in the valley for a month and both saved from dying of thirst by a snow storm. They two groups later had a meeting later. (en)
