The correct answer is option A: Rendezvous was the largest trading company in the West, and the Mountain Men traded their pelts to the company for supplies.
Rendezvous was an annual gathering organized by fur trading companies during the early 19th century. It served as an important meeting point for Mountain Men, who were trappers and explorers in the American West. The primary purpose of the Rendezvous was for the Mountain Men to trade their valuable beaver pelts to the fur companies in exchange for much-needed supplies such as food, ammunition, clothing, and tools. The Rendezvous allowed the Mountain Men to replenish their provisions and continue their trapping expeditions in the frontier.
