Synopsis

Master story-teller Howard Copenhaver of Ovando, Montana, author of the best-selling book They Left Their Tracks, is at it again. In a new book titled Mule Tracks: The Last of The Story, which is filled with his famous wit and tender insights into life and fun in the wilds of Montana s Bob Marshall Wilderness, he focused the majority of his this book on the often unpredictable and zany antics of the beloved mules with whom he traversed thousands of miles in the wilderness over his sixty years as an outfitter. Often hilarious, always insightful, and ever moving with a quick pace from one marvelous incident to another, Copenhaver brought to this new book the same warm humor that characterized his earlier books. Issued in 6x9-inch format, many photographs and illustrations, some humorous and some instructional.

About this title

About the Author:

Howard Copenhaver, a pioneer outfitter in the Bob Marshall Wilderness who shared his wealth of experiences in four popular books and was the unofficial mayor of Ovando, Montana.
He started packing visitors into the rugged backcountry of the Bob Marshall by mule string in the late 1920s, when it was known simply as the South Fork (of the Flathead.) The young conservationist, Bob Marshall, was just making a name for himself around that time with his marathon hikes there.
Copenhaver also was a master storyteller, an important trait for wilderness guides, who have to keep saddle-sore dudes entertained during long days on the trail.
