OK All You Troop 805 Anglers Out There,
We’ll be going to Donner Memorial State Park near Truckee California July 24th – 26th. In between Fish Slaying and Camping we will visit the Donner Museum dedicated to the memory of the ill-fated Donner party, often described by historians as one of the most spectacular tragedies in Californian history and in the history of western migration.
While on their pilgrimage via wagon train to California during the winter of 1846 – 1847, the Donner families were caught in an early heavy snow storm. Trapped in November 1846 at Donner camp on Alder Creek, food supplies soon became very low. Some of the emigrants eventually resorted to cannibalism to survive, eating those who had succumbed to starvation and sickness, before being rescued 4 months later in February 1847. Only 48 of the 87 members of the party survived to reach California.
Come test your fishing and camping skills with the Radioactive Gummy Bears.
