Early settlers in the Rocky Mountain region included fur trappers and traders such as Jim Bridger and John Colter, who explored and mapped the area in the early 19th century. The Mormons, led by Brigham Young, established a significant settlement in Salt Lake Valley in 1847. Additionally, gold rushes in the mid-1800s attracted many prospectors and miners, leading to the establishment of towns like Denver and Colorado Springs. These settlers contributed to the region's development and the expansion of the United States westward.
