Oregon Trail
What are some things the pioneers traded with the Indians on the Oregon Trail?

I need to write a paragraph on what the Pioneers traded on the Oregon trail. and who they traded with. thanks!

Most of the Indians in the Oregon Country welcomed the white settlers. Their experience with British and American traders led them to see the settlers as a new source of wealth, as tribes which traded with whites became rich and powerful compared with their neighbors. When American settlers began arriving, Indians often guided them through the mountains or let them stake a claim on tribal lands in exchange for gunpowder, food, clothes, or horses. Unfortunately, the traders and settlers also brought new diseases to the Indians, diseases like smallpox and measles which killed whole tribes
