" Liver Eating Johnson " WIldest Mountain Man Of All Time

HIs wife was reportly killed by Crow Indians and so began a life of attacking Crow natives as a one man army , dispatching them , then eating their livers. ( A total of 20 Warriors in 20 years ) At one time , he was captured and held captive in a tee-pee. He chewed through his raw-hide cuffs and killed the native watching him, then cut off one of the natives legs and used it for his food on his way back to his partners cabin 200 miles away. ( Not my photo of course, but one of the wildest beared men to live in the wild west!! ( Google search a bit on him )

Thanks for posting this image Monte - I'm going to have to do some research on him. I love reading about the ole Mountainmen era. This is one man I haven't read about.
