The
North Frontiersmen Association is entering its 6TH Year
of being in business. Some groups gave us six months and
we would close our doors. Well to those folks of which
some are now in trouble - WE'RE STILL IN BUSINESS &
DOING WELL.
Starting
our SIXTH YEAR we're going to have a contest for
the NAF members, here's how it will work.
The NAF
receives many email comments on our On-Line Journal
"Smoke Signals" covers. That being the case our
contest will be which cover is your favorite?
How
this will work:
-
The
cover with most votes collected for a single
cover will be gathered.
-
Those
that voted for that winning cover; their names
will be placed in a hat.
-
One
of those names will be picked and the winner
will receive the contest prizes. YES I said PRIZES
more than ONE.

will run for the two issues:
Nov/Dec
2011 and Jan/Feb. 2012.
"Smoke
Signals Covers"
2009-2010

the
2012 covers for:

The contest
will run in the next two issues of
"Smoke Signals" Nov/Dec 2011
& Jan/Feb 2012 and our Chief Factor has emailed the
NAF members of this event.
Our
three man committee for counting the votes and
handling the drawing out of the hat will be from
the "Three Pines" boys from Hollister CA.
Our Chief Factor will over see the counting.

"Rocky
Mountain Tough"
By:
Bill Cunningham
The
mountain man of the 1800s fought the
elements, the unexpected, and the Indians. A
careless moment, a wrong decision, and he
could lose his furs, his plunder, his hair.
. . Today’s buckskinner faces a more
cunning, vicious foe—special interests
want his land. For Maxwell Stacey, it may
mean his plunder, his woman, even his life;
the men chasing him have the finest modern
guns and equipment money can buy. Max has
only his flintlock rifle, his horses, and
some fine honed survival skills from the fur
trade period.
