The “mountain men” were the hunters and trappers who fiercely strode the Rocky Mountains in the early to mid-1800s. They braved the elements in search of the skins of beavers and other wild animals, to sell or barter for goods. The lifestyle of the mountain men could be harsh, existing as they did among animals, and spending most of their days and nights living and camping out in the great unexplored wilds of the Rockies.

Very helpful travel guide from an insiders view
I've passed through New York City many times, but haven't really spent enough time there. Finally, in the next few weeks I will be visiting, and it was so fortunate that a friend provided me with a free copy of this audio book in advance. Because I live in Arizona, where sometimes public transportation is limited, I was nervous about navigating public transportation like subways. The section on multi-model transportation and how to get around to any place in the city was very helpful for me. And of course there is much more to enjoy about this guide.
