Joe cozily it was an early Glacier National Park ranger and a notorious outlaw poacher born in 1870 cozily was a skilled mountain man part Chippewa with long hair a scarlet hips sash gold earrings and a Buffalo Bill goatee the whitefish pilot dubbed him the champion Trapper of the Rocky Mountain region cozily was hired as a ranger for the newly created Glacier National Park in 1910 then fired four years later by officials who found him poaching the very game he was hired to protect cozily became a wanted man. For years he made fools of his American and Canadian pursuers the Blackfeet called him a panther on snowshoes. The defiant cozily carved Jacey on dozens of trees throughout the region cozily mountain and cozily Lake bear is name journalist Michael Jamieson wrote the myth plays Joe cozily in the company of Robin Hood a romantic every man stealing the King's deer in one thousand

twenty nine Ranger Joseph Himes cornered cozily at his winter camp filled with poached hides. Authorities found him guilty. Friends paid his fine but cozily continued to trap and explore until his death from scurvy in 1943. Summing up the man's life ranger Jerry to Santo wrote above all cozily work to create his own legend. If the colorful character of his imagination overshadows his real feats One gathers that cozily wouldn't mind as long as people still tell cozily stories from CAGE realty studios. I'm Derek strong.
