Frontier Fur Trappers and Traders

[@brianduffie8200]

The first to interact with native cultures were the missionaries and traders in the eastern woodlands in the 1600's.After the French and Indian War the Fur Trade started to move west.

Well done. Thank you for creating this and helping keep history alive. Please ignore all those who make stupid comments telling you how wrong you are, but make no other contributions.

This is Buddy commenting: Absolutely amazing individual fortitude and stamina to just leave civilization and go into the wilderness with only what you could carry or pack in. A host of circumstances on the edge of taking your life at a moments notice. Sickness, accident, animal attack, the weather, starvation, etc. Even just going into a small section of woods, it has been my goal through extensive study and experience to be prepared to spend a night or even longer should something unforseen happen. There are places of wilderness nearby. In NE Ohio it is the Grand River Wildlife preserve, open to hunting, fishing, hiking with currently over 8,000 Acres! In one section from Hoffman Norton Road going west on State Route 88, for over two miles, then North on State Route 534, for about three miles, there are no roads. One road on Rt. 534 north turns in going east about a mile, only to turn North going to State Route 87, Never going into the inner parts. Still truly wilderness part of this expansive piece of land in this day and age. Stay safe in your travels, be prepared. All the best and may GOD bless.

I believe Jeremiah Johnston was a Fur Trapper for awhile until things went south.

Carson as much later than Ashley's 100. He did serve under Jim Bridger but at the end of the fur bonanza.
