A long time fixture in Minnesota trapping, passed away, yesterday evening.
Prayers sent.
He was known as Jackpine Savage on here, and featured such threads as "old guys trapping beaver" and such.

The story is...He and his wife were out for a drive, around dark and got stuck, walked to a farmhouse and passed away during his visit with the farmer. It was brutal weather conditions yesterday up here.

I am very sorry to hear this. He was an inspiration to all trappers.

Sad to say it is true Gary, I spoke with Dennis for a moment this morning. The Minnesota trapping community has lost an icon. My condolences goes out to the Peterson family and friends.

I always enjoyed reading his adventures and Life With Arnie. He will be missed. Prayers to his family.

Terrible news. If there is anything we can do let us know. He will certainly be missed.
I have nothing clever to put here.

Here is what happened. Dennis asked me to post this
Kathy and Arnie went for a ride last night. They stopped at a friends house for coffee and a visit. On the way home they got stuck. Arnie walked back to the friends house to get the tractor. Arnie just slumped over at the table. I will post more regarding arrangements and such as I learn more. My heart goes out to Kathy and don't forget about Dennis as he lost his best friend and trapping partner. He is devastated as naturally Kathy is too.
