"Bridger Mountains were named after one of the first white men to explore Yellowstone National Park, Jim Bridger. The explorer scouted many of the trails and knew the mountains well. At the age of 17, Jim Bridger was the youngest member of the Upper Missouri Expedition, the beginning of a long and colorful career in the mountains. Bridger rose to the status of the quintessential mountain man, guiding many through the area."
The Bridger Mountain Range lies to the north of Bozeman. It is home to the Bridger Mountains National Recreation Trail and Bridger Bowl Ski Area. Many recreational opportunities can be found in this scenic mountain range because of its close proximity to Bozeman, yet this area retains it remoteness.

AS I told you , we traveled out west last summer and loved it. When you see it you just know God's hand created it.
