Fort Bridger: On the Edge of the Frontier | Sea to Shining Sea Day 17 | History Traveler Episode 517

Sea to Shining Sea Day 17 As settlers were migrating to the West in the mid-1800s, there was one last stop for them before they set out into the wild. That place was Fort Bridger. It was here where they could get guidance and supplies from famed mountain man and guide Jim Bridger. As we continue moving west, we're taking a quick stop at an old station for the Pony Express before exploring the remains of Fort Bridger.
