Jim Bender discovered that the water was salty when he tasted the salt lake.
Jim Bridger believed he had discovered a vast source of valuable salt when he tasted the green salt lake, which is now known as the Great Salt Lake in Utah. He thought it could be a significant resource for trade and sustenance, given the salt's importance in preserving food and other uses. His discovery contributed to the understanding of the region’s geography and resources, although it was later recognized that the lake's high salinity made it less suitable for certain purposes.
