Rugged and adventurous, thriving on the bounty of wilderness, the Mountain Man era in Idaho spanned the l820s and l83Os. Though driven here by a fur trade that began flourishing in 1638 and lasted for 200 years, the Mountain Man era covers a relatively short historical time span, but their romantic edge lingers on. Ranging the entire Rockies and meeting up in epic rendezvous of trappers, traders, and Native Americans, learn how everyone got along in the wild west. Mountain Man apparel and equipment will be shared and demonstrated.
