The Crossing - S1-E4

Factual error: The Dutton camp as well as Shea Brennon and Thomas are using modern thin Teflon/non-stick coated coffee mugs/pot.

River - S1-E3

Factual error: After deciding not to cross the Red River, they go west. Shae warns of two things: lack of water and having to cross the Brazos River. But to the west, there would be plenty of tributaries of the Red River to supply water. And since they would be traveling west between the Brazos and the Red River, there would be no need to cross the Brazos. Further, if they did cross the Brazos, they would find themselves south of the Brazos, where they would be forced to turn around to cross again.

Lightning Yellow Hair - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: After the horse race with Sam, Elsa and Sam are talking with bright high sun and shadows on Elsa's face. Moments later the the sun is low on the horizon in clouds. Then later in the same scene the sun is high and the strong shadows are on her face again.
