 Museum
of the Mountain Man
The Museum of the Mountain Man, located on a hill overlooking
Pinedale, houses a wonderful collection of artifacts of the Western Fur
trade, including Jim Bridger's rifle. The 15,000 square feet of exhibit
area is housed in a rotunda built of wood to evoke the spirit of a lodge.
A visual and interpretive experience of the romantic era of the Mountain
Man, the museum houses exhibits on the fur trade, western exploration,
Plains Indians and the early settlement of Western Wyoming. The Museum,
and the Sublette County Historical Society, sponsor the Rendezvous Pageant
held during the Green River Rendezvous every year in July. Visit the Museum
today and relive the legacy of the Mountain Man!
IPSSSDR
Sled Dog Race - Pinedale Stage Stop
This long name stands for the International Pedigree Stage
Stop Sled Dog Race. Since
1996, world renowned sled dog racers have come to western Wyoming
in late January to compete in the two-week long
race for the $100,000 purse offered by the International Pedigree Stage
Stop Sled Dog Race. Each day the teams race to a different town (there
are ten stage stops in all) where they are welcomed as honored guests
by the host community. Like the Iditarod Sled Dog Race, which commemorates
the heroism of dog teams relaying diphtheria antitoxins to Nome, Alaska
in 1925, the IPSSSDR also carries a public health message. Its slogan,
Wyoming Pulling Together: The Race to Immunize, creates public awareness
of the need for children, especially those under the age of two, to
be vaccinated against preventable diseases. Check out the IPSSSDR official
webpage here: www.WyomingStageStop.org
