It's the same with all the western trails, imagine 1000's died along Santa Fe, California, Oregon, or Mormon trails and only just a small fraction will be preserved and known today, most simply faded away or were forgotten.
True enough. Researchers love to find and study old remains, but if I understand correctly, most human bones just decompose completely over time until nothing is left.
