Scraps of History
BY JOSEPH FISH
Old Fort Bridger

nito Vasquez in charge Of an
extensive outfit. They contin-
ued in partnership for several
years, and in 1843 built the noted
fort on Blacks Fork of Green
River to which Bridger's name
was given. The post was in a
beautiful location in the Green
River valley, 1910 miles from
independence. 1t was veritably
an oasis in the desert, and it's
selection was a great credit to
it's founders. In early days it
was the second great stopping.
place on the trail and the first
after leaving Fort Laramie. The
date of it's construction, etc., is
given in a letter of James
Bridger's to Chouteau, dated De-
cember 10, 1843, in which he
says: Il have established a
small fort with a blacksmith
shop and supply of iron in the
road of the emigrants on Blacks
Fork of Green River which
promises fairly. They in coming
out are generally well supplied
with money, but by the time
they get there are in want of
all kinds of supplies. Horses,
provisions, smith work, etc.,
bring ready cash from them, and
should | receive the goods here
by ordered would do a considera
BILE business in that way with
them. The same establishment
trades with the Indians in the
neighborhood, who have mostly
a good number of beaver among
them" "
The fort was constructed of
two adjoining log houses, with
dirt roofs, enclosed by a fence
of pickets eight feet high, and,
as usual, the officers and Sleep
ing apartments opened into a
square, protected from attacks
by the Indians by a massive
timber gate. Into the corral all
the animals were driven at
night to guard them from being
stolen or devoured by wild
beasts. When the pioneers of
Utah came in 1847 they found
the fort about as described above
and there were some fifty to
sixty men, squaws and half
breed children at the post.
In 1853, Fort Bridger, with
it's Mexican grant of thirty
square miles of land, on which
stood few cabins, was sold for
$4,000 to the "Mormons" who,
during the following year, ex-
pended an equal sum in improve
ments. This was the first prop
erty owned by the saints in this
valley. On Nov. 2, thirty-nine
men, equipped with farming
implements, seeds, etc., left
Salt Lake City for the purpose
of establishing new settlement
in Green River County. They
arrived at Fort Bridger on the
IL, and on the Is another COM
pany arrived, making a total of
nearly fifty men. These COM
bined companies located on
Smiths Fork and called their
place Fort Supply. But on the
approach Of Johnston's army, in
1857, Fort Bridger, as well as
Fort Supply, was burned and
the valley vacated.
The Green River Valley was
long the rendezvous of the trap
pers in the summer months. and
was also noted place on the
Old Oregon Trail which passed
this way to Fort Hall. In 1916
Hastings came through r m
California to Fort Bridger, pass
ing by the southern end of the
Great Salt Lake. This route
was followed by the fated Don
mar party who, with one or two
other parties, first broke the
