Into the west!
You've just received a letter from your friend Reginald McFarfulgen, who several years earlier emigrated to the Oregon Territory near the end of the famous Oregon Trail. You had planned to join him soon, but you were waiting to hear word of his safe arrival in the new territory. In his letter, he warned of the deadliest things that awaited you, but you were promised the reward for safe passage would be worthwhile. In addition to the 640 acres of land promised to you by the government, McFarfulgen says that a wealthy local landowner recently was almost killed by disease and returned east, but he left a locked chest he claimed contained the deed to his land (another 640 acres) and a map to gold he had found. Reginald stated that the locked chest came with a map, which he sent in the letter back to you on the trail, that contained clues to various keys. The previous owner said he was leaving these keys along the Oregon Trail as he journeyed back east.
To prove that it wasn't a wild goose chase, McFarfulgen's neighbor left him a nugget of gold he had found on his land and is one of the keys needed to open the chest. Now Reginald needs your help! He needs you to locate the other five keys hidden along the trail. McFarfulgen will keep the squatters away as long as he can, but it is your job to find the rest of the keys and get to the Oregon Territory as soon as possible. Time is running out; you had better hurry!
