Mission Range Hunt Diary by Paxson and Orton
A September trek in the Mission range follows Ed Paxson and Wil and Fred Orton as they struggle through windfalls and rain. The diary records a perilous horse trampling, a thigh wound, goat hunting on steep granite rims, a dramatic descent, near exhaustion, and a final return to camp after sixteen hours of travel and a successful elk and goat hunt.
