The term for 'leader' among mountain men is 'boosh-way.' This boosh-way heads a local mountain man organization called Yellowstone Mountain Men, Cody, Wyoming. He was the perfect model for a painting I wanted to create: I thought it would be interesting to have a modern mountain man dressed in exactly the same garb as his predecessors of an earlier period. Mountain men make their own outfits and the boosh-way had made a costume completely by hand that was exactly like those from the 1820-40 period. The results lived up to my expectations . . . perhaps revealing that even 150 years can't dull the spirit of the mountain men who roamed the Old West. - JB

ABOUT EMAILING FOR PRICE:
1. Once an item is "sold out" and only available thru "secondary" or "resale" sources, pricing can vary day by day or hour by hour as resales occur. In such instances, the prices you see on our website may represent the last of those items sold as opposed to today's price. That is why we often tell you to "email" for pricing.
