This region had perhaps never before been visited by either trapper, or hunter.

They found beavers in plenty, and their success was excellent.
With well laden mules they again crossed the Rocky mountains to reunite themselves with the main camp of the trappers on Green river.

They trapped on their way and continued success attended them.

Thus enriched, they accompanied the main party to a tributary of the Wind river, where the annual Rendezvous was that year to be held.

Here were renewed the usual scenes of the trapper's great Fair which we have already described.
As the Rendezvous broke up, Mr.Carson joined a large party, and recrossed the mountains to the Yellowstone, where they had already had so many bloody encounters with the Blackfeet Indians.
