I had the brief opportunity to meet him at the changing of the guard at Bear Quest last year. Mike was in week one and I was in week two. Met him at Kalamazoo this year and bought a copy of "One With The Wilderness". Read it last weekend while we were babysitting for the grandkids. Once I started reading it I couldn't put it down. That book say's alot about the man, don't really know what more to say. It made me think about life in general from a different perspective.

Guys can get a look at the "real" Mike Mitten on the bonus footage of the new Essential Enounters DVD.  His bird hunt footage is classic!

He's such a nice fella- he passed a bear in Quebec last year so I could get one.

Ever seen that picture of him with BOTH his avatar bucks on his back walking them out?  The guy's gotta be a bull no matter how big.

Mike's a good friend of mine.  Personally, I think he keeps me around because I have a wide angle lens on my camera which makes him look a lot bigger than he is, HA!

My favorite Trad article was written by Mike, describing a wilderness Moose hunt he did in Canada. I have never wanted to go wilderness hunting more than when I fiished that article. Kudos!
