Colorado 1982, Article Coming in Trapper's World on Johnny Thorpe

This is a photo taken by Judy in the mountains near Woodland Park above Colorado Springs, October  1982.  I am on the right, Johnny Thorpe at center.  I became involved in trapping nearly 50 years after meeting Johnny in Lake Vanare, N.Y.   Johnny died on October 27, 2015 at his home in Stony Creek.  As a staff writer for Trapper's World, Johnny will be remembered in the next issue.  I have contributed an article for the magazine, highlighting some of John's accomplishments, while providing a few details of times I spent on the beaver line with Johnny in Virginia in the 70's.
