Sierra Bonita 4th grade students recently enjoyed a visit from Scott “Grizzly Man” Sorenson.  Students were entertained by the mountain man who told tales of legendary mountain men such as Jedediah Smith, Jim Bridger, Kit Carson, and John Colter, who made their mark in the opening of the American West.  Scott introduced students to the early methods of trapping, tanning, muzzle loading, and telling of tall tales.  It truly made western history and the mountain men era come alive for students.
