I like his hairstyle
The hangover special.
Kit Carson was the real deal Mountain Man.
Personally I liked Mike Fink.

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Kit Carson was late to the party and didn't really do much as a mountain man. He made his fame after the mountain man era was pretty much over. And most of the stories about him were very exaggerated.

Mike Fink was a great historic figure but he died about the time the Mountain Men were first getting started. Never went to the mountains. He lived quite a life though.

Pretty obvious his gun was more important than his comb.

I enjoyed the movie, and still do, and enjoyed the book, Crow Killer”. And I don’t read many books.
