How did the 1842 expedition of john c fremont contribute to westward migration ?

I think it's 'he publicized the beauty of the west.'

after the 1842 expedition of john c fremont, he became an instant celebrity because he published that the west is not a place of danger but infact is a place where people can settle. that is why many people wants to migrate to the west. and he was known a conqueror that is not wielding a sword but a compass
