Horseshoe in my Hip Pocket

horseshoe in my pocketThis book is from a time past and a way of life that we will never see again, when life was slowed down to the speed a horse traveled. Bob's journey began at an early age in the Alberta foothills, west of Sundre, where he followed his Dad's footsteps in the Rocky Mountains as a guide and outfitter through some of the provinces wildest and most beautiful country. Hear about roping wild horses, the thrill of hunting cougars and of the early days of oil and gas exploration with a packoutfit before roads cut up the wilderness. Join Bob in recalling the great places, people and horses that filled his fascinating young life, exploring and traveling from Banff to Wapiti Lake. Throw in a little rodeo, airplane wrecks, and many other challenges.

Then follow Bob north to Mile 422 on the Alaska Highway where he homesteaded and operated one of Northern B.C.'s most successful big game outfitting businesses. Hear about the abundance of wildlife, the challenges of mountain flying and the characters who made his life interesting.
