Established at Trading Post. Fort Bridger was established us a trading post h.v James Bridger, who In the winter of 1S2423 discovered Great Salt lake us (lie outcome of a wager concerning the course of t lie Bear river. Tiie ghosts of (lie old trading post If such there are, could tell of Hie traders of more tlinu a century ugo; of Indians and trappers; of pony ex press riders, und of Ben Holliday's singe drivers; of Briglmm Young and his party of Mormons In 1847; of gold seekers hastening to California discoveries la IS 10 ; of the coming ot Gen. Albert Sidney Johnston's urniy in the winter of 1837-5en route to Salt Lake City; of the troops sta tioned at the old fort In later yeurs und they could tell of the neglect of the old fort since the days when the government nhundoned it us a military post. Ghosts seldom tolk, but the annuls of t he West have preserved the history of Fort Bridger. The trading post was the home for many years of hunters and trappers, their sole refuge In a desolate region Until Utah wus ceded to the United States after the war with Mexico. Fort Bridger wus in Mexican terrl tory. Until the present borders of Utah were established In 18C1 Fori Bridger was In the territory of Utah. Many vicissitudes were the lot ol the inhabitants of the trading post; hot summers and severely cold win ters beset tliem, and at times, starva tlon threatened when deep snows nnd severe teniperutures In tiie wintei months prevented Journeys to repien ish the larder. Bancrofts history ot L'tali records that the winter o: 1S18-M!- ) was one of tiie coldest tvei experienced In that region and that t ho supply of corn was so low tlinl tiie following order wss Issued: That no corn Khali be mink Into whisky and that if any man is caught pre paring to distill corn into whisky ot alcohol the corn shall he tuken and given to the poor." In 1853 Fort Bridger, togettier with its Mexican grant of thirty square miles, wiis purchased by the Mormons for $8,0(10, and in the following yeni an equal sum was expended for Improvements.

Tiie grain and other stores were either carried off or destroyed and ot Hie buildings only two enclosures walled in by collide rocks, remained In late years other structures were erected. While still in Utah Fort Bridgei at one time rose to Hie distinction of being designated seat of Green Rivet county's government.
