Riding in a covered wagon was a unique and challenging experience, often characterized by a bumpy and slow journey across rugged terrain. The interior was cramped, filled with supplies and personal belongings, creating a sense of closeness among travelers. While the wagons provided some protection from the elements, passengers faced dust, rain, and the constant motion of the wagon. Despite the hardships, many found camaraderie and adventure in the shared experience of pioneering a new life.

Well, the driver, his wife, and very young children usually did. But you are correct that many pioneers headed West walked most of the way beside the wagon. The main reason was that the wagon was stuffed to the canvas with their worldly goods, and there was no room to ride in the wagon!
There is no age limit. You can be a hundred. You can be a day old!

Yes they did.
Terrible. Compared to automobile travel today, it was slow, bumpy, smelly, and with many more breakdowns between destinations.
