Mountain man life shines at Poa show with possible bags

Dan Hoar and his father Donald of Paynette entered a non Indian costume class at the Menomonie spring POA show. Dan, a Poynette third grader, rode Little John Phantom, a 15 year old POA gelding, wearing a deerskin outfit and a three strand bone necklace. Little John wore coyote and raccoon pelts and a hackamore bridle bought in Mexico. The event featured English western and game classes with many riders under eight, and a red satin court jester costume won best dressed. The life of a mountain man comes through in the costumes and gear.
