Logo Meaning:
The circular Beaver Plew represents the treasure that attracted the mountain men to the wilderness. After skinning the beaver, the pelt was stretched on a willow frame to cure prior to shipping.
The trap was the mountain man’s principal tool. He generally carried 6 of them weighing 5-6 ponds each.
The emigrant grave marker and the spur represent some of the same forces that eventually spelled the end of the fur trade era — the beginning of the westward migration and the coming of the ranchers that eventually tamed the wilderness.
The arrow symbolizes the close connection between the native tribes of the Rocky Mountains and the mountain men — both as allies and enemies.
The mountain man’s rifle was used for hunting game as well as for protection. Flintlock and percussion style were used with Henry or Hawken rifles being common.

Narrative of a Journey – Across the Rocky Mountains to the Columbia River
The Narrative chronicles a journey of discovery by the first trained naturalist to cross the American continent. As a member of Captain Nathaniel Wyeth’s 1834 expedition to the Oregon country, John Kirk Townsend journeyed west through a “rich and unexplored region” that offered science an “almost inexhaustible field” for study. Townsend’s account of his travels is an engaging, personal record of the first transcontinental trek along the route that would soon become the Oregon Trail.

No Life for a Lady
When Agnes Morley Cleveland was born on a New Mexico cattle ranch in 1874, the term “Wild West” was a reality, not a cliche. In those days cowboy didn’t know they were picturesque, horse rustlers were to be handled as seemed best on the occasion, and young ladies thought nothing of punching cows and hunting grizzlies in between school terms. Mrs. Cleveland’s personal history of her experiences is “topnotch Americana, honestly and entertainingly told.” – The New Yorker
