[QUOTE="Trapper62, post: 76246, member: 516"] Davey Crockett - you may know this guy or maybe your dad would, it is my dads cousin who grew up on the west side of the Turtle Mountains - Ingvald Thorhold. He always claimed that he paid for his farm with the money he made trapping. He kind of took me under his wing and taught me how to trap and always took me along when he was in the area. Remember one time when I was trapping and he was in his 80's I called and asked him if he wanted to go along in the morning to check traps, of course he did. We were driving by a hay meadow that had a mound of hay in it and he asked if I had a trap there, told him no. So we went out there told me exactly how to set the trap and said, "You'll have a fox there in the morning". Next morning when we checked, sure enough a nice red fox. He had that little "see I told you so" smile on his face all morning. He passed not to many months after that.
