NOTE: this post contains spoilers for 1883 episode 3, "River."
For anyone that played the great old computer game Oregon Trail, you know that forging a river was always the most difficult part of the game (if you didn't die from dysentery early on). 1883 knows it too, as, with all the other things that can kill you as part of a wagon train, a river is the one thing people are scared to talk about (according to Elsa's narration). So of course, a river is what our characters come up against in 1883's third episode.
