If there are any old trappers from Michigan on this forum they may remember Gary Dunlap. I got word today that Gary died in his sleep last night, he was 72. He was a professional trapper and fur buyer in the Hubbard Lake area in Michigan through the 1970's. I met Gary around 1977. We hunted and trapped together for a number of years. We kind of went our separate ways for awhile. Gary moved to Alaska a number of years ago and we recently started talking by phone. He wanted me to fly up and hunt with him. I have been trying to call him the last few months but couldn't get hold of him. I wish I had called more and got to talk some more before he took that last journey.

Sorry to hear about your friend.

That's Gary on the far right in the stern of his 26' North Canoe. I'm in the little 12 footer next to the big canoe. Them was shinin times.

Sir, it sounds like a bunch of wonderful memories. My condolences on your loss.

Sorry to hear this..

My Condolences also Ron! Sounds like a guy to ride the river with!

Sounds like a hell of a guy. Sorry you lost a friend

RIP Mr. Dunlap.

Well, there's something to look forward to in his moving on to better grounds, you might trap again with Gary.

Sorry for the loss may he rest easy
