Contact Jason Gatliff at "On The Trail Magazine" ( editor@ottmagazine.com) and he can put you in contact with someone in your area. At an eastern rendezvous you will see people interested in every period, from the French & Indian War (George Washington set up a line of forts in West Virginia during that period) to the Rocky Mountain trappers. A good blacksmith is always welcome at rendezvous. If you like this site, you will love Jason's magazine. You might as well get a subscription while you're at it.

Mike,

Some members of this list are in West Virginia if memory serves me right, Adison??????? Also, everyone here has limitations of one kind or another. There are some who have health problems that limit their ability to get out but they take their hobby as they can. Dennis Stitcher out west here has some health problems but he and his boys are always welcome at a camp and have hunted and canoed as he has kindly shared details about on this list. We need fresh faces questions and perspectives on this list. I remember when I first joined I must have started a dozen good arguments. Now look at all that fun the other members would have missed out on if I hadn't asked all those stupid questions.
