Founder Joe Tonsmeire
Joe lived life to the fullest. He loved the land and rivers deeply and was truly an adventurer. His days were spent outdoors running rivers, working the ranch, climbing mountains, riding the range or chasing elk.
Joe left his family and friends with countless treasured memories of the adventures they shared and how he always seemed to have the most fun of all. Joe's daughter Amy wrote this poem about her dad: With the pace of a mountain goat and the heart of Lion, he never stopped living - he'd rather die trying; From the top of McKinley or thru raging falls, he's riding the range and shooting the stars; The River it called and the trail it began and the wind always whispered to this special man; A figure of love, and passion and grace, blue dancing eyes and a smile on his face; I wonder now what we should do or should say, I'll follow his tracks and cherish each day; Well the River it called and the trail it began and the wind always whispered to this special man. |
