1)Some key difficulties the settlers faced in the prairies were ...........

- Traveling by horse and wagon was very difficult fr them to travel to one place to another and was very dangerous.

- They had to adapt to the life in the prairies which was very difficult.

I would not be able to deal with the conditions in the prairies and how the settlers had to leave because for me when doing something you have done for a while and then taking a new step is very difficult to control.
