Mountain men is a term for male trappers or explorers who lives exclusively in the wilderness. They were popular and romanticized during the 18th century. They were vital in settling new territories and opening up new wagon trails that travelled through the North American Rocky Mountains due to their knowledge in the geography of the area. Later in life, many of these mountain men were hired by wagon companies and fur trading companies as guides or hunters.
