Anyone here know or heard tell of Alaskan homestead trappers Duane OSE or Oliver CAMERON?
They were located in the interior of Alaska, East of Lake Minchumina-S of Wien Lake.
This is SW of Nenana about 45 miles, S by SW of Fairbanks 165 air miles, and 78 miles N of Denali.
Wolf-fisher-otter and lynx along with beaver pelts. OSE used to run a 130 mile series of traplines there in the winter.
In the bottom land near Bear Paw the temperature can reach 70 below zero. Fine trapping and snowshoe weather, but best keep yer feet dry.
Jack London country.
For an interesting real trapper story involving the Mounties, look up Albert Johnson- in the Canadian Northwest Territories.
