Some of the old photos I have seen had every kind of pole you could think of.
These pictures were taken after the freedom had been taken from them. From
my understanding lodge pole pine poles were a huge trade item.

Buck,
Putting the filmstrip/audio on video is a great idea.
If this filmstrip is 30 to 40 years old, it might have escaped the
revisionist historians who weren't as vociferous back then as they are
today.
I'll work on tracking down the remaining parts if Part 1
is, like you said, worthwhile. I'll be in touch after I've
seen the show.

Victoria,
Your package is already on the way. I have no idea how old they are. They
were donated to a local lending library in 1981 and they gave them to us. No
one has the old filmstrip player to view them. I have never seen them
myself, but would be interested in the video if that ever gets off the ground.

Subject: MtMan-List: Trappers
6:00 p.m. PST
I would like help from the list with my latest project.
I am writing a non-fiction book for young adults (interest level grade 4 and up) on the American fur trade. As an educator I know first-hand that most history books for young adults skip from Lewis and Clark to the Oregon Trail. Textbooks skip this important time in our nation's history and, with the exception of Bridger and maybe Beckworth, there aren't biographies on the shelves.
Part of the book will include biographies on 7-10 trappers.
I am interested in list member's opinions on which mountaineers should be included. Please contact me off the list with your ideas
