AREA HISTORY
The Gallatin Valley is steeped in history. It was first a prominent location for Native American tribes, including the Blackfeet, Shoshone, Flathead, and Crow, as they traversed the region. In fact, on their trip west, Sacajawea was taken captive by the Lewis and Clark Expedition at the Missouri River Headwaters, where the Gallatin, Madison, and Jefferson Rivers converge to form the Missouri River. Over time, they befriended Sacajawea and valued her leadership skills, as she was familiar with the lands in the west. In 1806, the Lewis and Clark Expedition was led by Sacajawea on the return trip across the country; Lewis and Clark traveled what is known as Bozeman Pass today. They traveled along the Gallatin and East Gallatin, then up and over Bozeman Pass and toward the Yellowstone River on their journey east.
The Bridger Mountains are named after the famous fur trader Jim Bridger, who also traversed the Gallatin Valley while exploring the area.
