Fort Bridger - An Island in the Wilderness. Jim Bridger answered an ad in the Missouri Republican in St. Louis Missouri, and twenty years later, when he decided to settle down, he had become one of the most famous mountain men in the Rocky Mountain West. His fort was located on an island formed by branches of the Black Fork in Wyoming. He traded both with the immigrants and the Indians.
