A Photo Excursion Part II: Mountain Man Retreat


Adam throwing the tomahawk. Serious business!


Brandon got one in!


Some cool garb a real mountain man let us try on.


This guy was shooting his rifle when we arrived. We had to trudge through some swampy land to get to him!


The very long drive to Ashton by way of an extensive gravel road was at least gorgeous. All week it rained, but we got lucky with great weather all day.





He didn't quite seem to fit in...


Who will buy?...



The kids sat and made several art projects with beads and sticks.


Caryn Esplin and Black kettle chat about his advertising posters


Julie is probably the most photographed member of our group.



These photos were taken in Ashton, Idaho at a Mountain Man Rendezvous. Several class members carpooled up, and we followed in our car. It was fun to get some interesting portrait experience, and the kids enjoyed watching archery, tomahawk throwing, crafting, and walking through the little 'booths' which sold cool beads, hats and other goods.
