| | Questions for fur trappers |
 | | This month, I hope to give you some ideas on what to right fur trapper should look like. | | | With that information in hand, tell your trapper what your problem is. Then ask him to tell you how he would plan to solve it. | | | If he says, he would use footholds, and you know that the state forbids footholds, then you should find a moment somewhere in the conversation to thank him for his time and hang up. |

| | Fur trade - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The fur trade (also called the Indian trade) was a huge part of the early history of contact in North America between European-Americans and American Indians (now often called Native Americans in the United States and First Nations in Canada). | | | Consequently, there was much rivalry between different European-American governments for control of the fur trade with the various native societies. | | | The Bureau of Indian Affairs issued licenses to trade in the Indian Territory, which in 1834 consisted of most of the United States west of the Mississippi River, where mountain men and traders from Mexico freely operated. |

| | Some claim it was named for Baptiste Brown, a French-Canadian fur trapper who arrived in 1827, while others claim that Baptiste Brown was an alias for Jean-Baptiste Chalifoux. | | | A few argue that Brown is a fictional character invented long after Browns Park was named, and that the name comes from the brown physical appearance of the valley. | | | After that, many fur trappers and mountain men visited Brown's Hole; the list included Kit Carson, Joe Meeks, Jack Robinson, the Ceran St. Vrain party from Taos, New Mexico, who spent the winter of 1827-28 in Brown's Hole, and the Alexander Sinclair party who wintered there in 1831-32. |
