Memories of a Mountain Man

Carlos 'Bolo' Damon was a mountain man. Like most of his kind, Carlos was a loner and quite able to live off the land and his own skills. Damon lived off the land and hunted various animals for their furs and like his peers, blazed many trails that later travelers would use and benefit from. Damon hunted and worked where his feet, or his mount would take him. It didn't really matter. For a man like Carlos, what mattered was the fur that he could obtain, and there was plenty of that in the still bountiful woods.

It was just another day for Damon. His wanderings had brought him to a patch of woods where he had observed one of his more valuable prey.
