 I sure wish I could have found more information to accompany this photo, but the only info available was "An Old Trapper in Canada" |

A favorite of mine, too. The gent's name is François Gros Louis, and there is a series of photos of him, taken in the later 1800s. That print has been altered a bit---the original glass plate had a crack in it which has been removed in that image. Nice photo, really captures the image of the old trapper/voyageur type.

Fat Louie appears to have lost some weight over the years. ;D Great picture. The lines in his face look like a trail map for his life. Reminds me of a lot of wrinkled old Navajo and Apache women that I've met over the years. Time, exposure, and experience shapes their faces.

These could be photos of Matt Denison, North Star West, in a couple of years. Hope he does not read this.
