Sad to hear of his passing, what a character.
Happy to see the the news accounts mention that he was a trapper.

God speed, Mr Young. I had posted his passing on Trap Talk. There will never be anything close to that man available to fill his shoes.

One of ATA's very first "Trapper of the Year" awards.

Don will certainly be missed.

So who will replace him?
I have concerns about the young Begich guy.

Not to take anything fm Youngs passing. Former Alaskan Don Winkleman passed awhile back. Don was a commercial fisherman and trapped using a plane at times.
