Not sure if you guys have heard but my Jake Jefferson's wife passed away on Monday November 19th. Jake is a master guide and lives near Wasilla. He was my guide for a Dall sheep and a grizzly bear hunt. A great guy, he ran his outfitting business by himself. They have six children, four children of their own and then adopted twin native kids, a boy and a girl. Jake had spent some time when he grew up living in a village as his father was a minister at the village. Jake was on Kodiak guiding his last deer hunt for the year when he got a text on his In reach. I can't imagine the turmoil he is going through. There is two Go fund me pages set up on the Alaska outdoor forum site, here is one, if anyone is interested.

Thanks

Thanks for the heads up. That is just horrible news. I communicate with him pretty regularly on another form and have been seriously pondering one of his Grizzly trips.

Damn, sorry to hear. Known Jake for a couple decades, seems longer. Been out of touch since I moved back to MI 5 years ago.
