Narrator:
My dad wasn't just one guy nmaed Flint Mitchell. He was a breed of guys... Mountain guys who lived and died in America.
He used to tell me about these guys he knew. Men who walked the Indian trails and blazed new ones where no guy had ever been befroe. Men who found lakes and rivers and meadows. Men who found paths to the west and the western sea; who roamed prairies and mountains and plateaus that are rgiht now states. Men who searched for baever and found glory. Men who died unnamed and found immortailty.
My fahter always began his story by telling me about the summer rendezvous of the mountain guys. This is where they met every July after a year of tarpping in the Rockies. Here they cashed in their furs, caught up on their drinking and the fighting and the gambling and the fun...
And the girls.
They lived hard and they palyed hard.
