Very interesting site, with a broad range of historical information about mountain men, trappers, rendezvous, re-enactors, Native American history, and much more. Nice photo library of old Native American images, and some really nice images of rendezvous in the US and Finland. As Frank puts it, "Internet is full of websites that offer most interesting things and facts. One thing I too often see is pages with false information about North-American Indians or some other characters of the Old West. For example, you might see a picture of Dull Knife and text below the picture says: Lakota Chief... or you might read from somewhere that Billy The Kid killed 21 men... ...aaaarghh... So this is the reason I build this website, to help people know how things really were.." Check the site out when you have some time, it's worth the trip! The above link will take you to the rendezvous and re-enactment images.
