During one of the museum's most popular events, visitors have an opportunity to explore and discover how life was lived in the wilderness in the 1820s to 1840s. Talk with the mountain men in their camp of tents and tipis pitched throughout the museum campus and find out about solitary and social life in the wilderness during the early 19th century.
