Not sure if it was posted already, looked but did not find it..
Just reading the story online that Bob Harte pasted away this week, Bob was one of my favorites on that show. The report did not say what caused his death but he had been battling cancer for several years.
It was also noted that Preston Roberts of Mountain men also passed away as a result of an inoperable liver tumor.

Damn I really liked him sad day for sure.. he truly lived the Alaskan dream that many of us want to live..
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

Don't worry, Fish and Wildlife will be right over to burn that cabin down and remove that permit.
Because through judicious handloading and a bold sense of optimism, you can make anything into an .88 Magnum - once! 😁 - chesterpulley

I found it quite painful to watch his last struggles. Eventually, we must all admit that we can't quite do it anymore. He did fight to the end, and I can not imagine the memories beautiful days and events that he's taken with him. Rest in peace.

Mark Begich, Joaquin Jackson, and Heller resistance... Three huge reasons to worry about the NRA.

He has children, and according to the show, the rpermits are still valid till the death of his children.

For all intents and purposes that permit is gone.

hikerbum, if you would like an interesting as well as educational read, check out "Land Gone Lonesome" by Dan O'Neill. It's about the formation of the Yukon Charley National Park which is just south of ANWR. It's a good illustration of the attitude of our Fed Gov towards it's citizens that live "out". The history of the area is also interesting if you're into that kind of stuff. Lots of folks kicked out of their homes that were subsequently burned.

Sad that he was so "young" to die but he packed more into his years than some could fit into 4 lifetimes. As mentioned he lived life on his terms and I pray that he's resting peacefully on the endless tundra in the sky.

That's a shame because it'll be lost forever. I know it's important for the old timers to pass that down and a disappointment when they move to town, knowing that they'll be lost to the lights.
Heimo has often expressed how much that mattered to him.
