Mountain men first went to Oregon for the fur industry which was huge at that time. They contributed by creating trails to the West, acting as guides and colonizing the area with trading posts.

They both live in the wild/mountains.
It wasn't discovered, it was created. Fur Trappers, Mountain Men, and Explorers had traveled to the Rocky Mountains for decades, so it was well known how to get to Utah by the time the Mormon Pioneers traveled there. It closely followed the Oregon and California trails for a majority of the time, because there was really only one accessable route due to rivers and large mountains being in the way.
It depends on the weather if it was cold on top of the mountain then they would hire strong hairy men for the job or if it was just plain grassy mountains they would be fairly hairy and not all that super strong so hope i helped:)

Mountain men were trappers and explorers who roamed the North American Rocky Mountains from about 1810 to the early 1840s. Although primarily of Canadian or American origin, mountain men were of many ethnic, social and religious backgrounds. These men were primarily motivated by profit, trapping beaver and selling the skins, although some were more interested in exploring the West. An approximate 3,000 men ranged the mountains in the window between 1820 and 1840, the peak beaver harvesting period. While there were many free trappers, most mountain men were employed by fur companies. The life of a company man was almost militarized. The men had mess groups, hunted and trapped in brigades and always reported to the head of the trapping party. NOVANET-young american trappers and traiders on the rocky mountain

Mountain Men were people who spent most of their time living in the Rocky Mountains and which later became known as mountain men. They used to hunt beavers for food and their fur. Over time, the mountain could no longer make a living by trapping because most of the beaver were killed. Many moved to Oregon and settled on farms. :) Hope it all helped!!Your Welcome
