  • Summary

  • David Wolf, Director of the Legacy of the Plains Museum, is joined by Jerry Lucas. 

    It was not long after the Lewis and Clark Expedition when American, British, and French trappers and traders started to use the North Platte River as a highway to the Rockies.  Jerry Lucas, local historian, and trapper interpreter joins us to talk about the early fur trappers and traders, some of the big personalities, and the many myths surrounding Scotts Bluff's namesake, Hiram Scott.  

    Scotts Bluff National Monument has been a landmark for humans from native Americans to emigrants on the Oregon, California, and Mormon Trails, and is still a beacon for travelers today.
