Jim Bridger

Mountain man, trapper, guide and scout, Jim Bridger, may be more associated with the Rocky Mountains, however, he was one of the founding fathers of Westport here in Kansas City.  He died on his farm near Kansas City and is buried in Independence.

    I can say Jim Bridger, Mountain Man, but after that I am ignorant.

    One of my childhood heroes (along with countless Indians). Blame my Dad.
