Season 1 Trivia

  • Episode 03 - Goof (anachronisms): George Armstrong Custer is one of the soldiers present at the first Treaty of Fort Laramie in 1851. At this time, he was only 11 years old, and wouldn't graduate from West Point for another ten years when his class was graduated a year early at the start of the American Civil War.
  • Episode 01 - Goof (factual errors): The men who made wheels were commonly called "wheelwrights", not "wheelers."
  • Episode 01 - The scene involving Jedediah Smith's scalp almost being torn off by a bear is accurate. And it was sewn back on by a member of his group. However, that person's real name was Jim Clyman, not the fictional series character, Jacob Wheeler.
