Mountain View, located near Fort Bridger, was founded in 1891. It is one of the gateways to camping, hiking and fishing in the only major east-to-west mountain range in the United States: the Uinta Range. It also is an excellent base for visitors who want to see one of the nation's largest Mountain Man Rendezvous every Labor Day at nearby Fort Bridger. Complete with period costumes, tomahawk competitions, black powder shoots, and much more, the Fort Bridger Rendezvous is an event for the entire family showing how the early settlers survived on the frontier.
