There is an annual race up Pioneer now. It started in 2014 and goes up to 5280' elevation before the mountain gets really technical.

Very, very sad. Sounds like a helluva guy.
I've always wanted to do a sheep hunt in AK, but I figure that those days are behind me now at my age.

I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

At 49, still going strong, doing what he loved to do. As some of the Native American family would say, it was a good death. And please don't get this wrong, he was still young and vibrant I'm sure. But if you have to go, do it when you are doing something you like. RIP

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

Sorry to hear this. Been in some sporty spots sheep hunting. Places where a misstep can end in disaster. RIP Roy, I’d say you did some living in those 49 years.

That was one hell of a tribute video! Bigazz bears fighting, that short time earlier when the bear stood up on the river bank deciding what to do.
RIP Roy Roth, many will miss you, but you went out doing what you loved.
