RIP Mr. Whitman. I was warned this was coming but it still makes me sad to get the news.

Rest in Peace, Jack. I only seen him once in person, but really enjoyed his writing, both here and his books. While I've never visited the areas he did in Alaska and Asia, I've hunted and/or trapped many of the areas he did here in Idaho, particularly the northern half. It always adds an extra element to a story when you think, "hey, I know that crick crossing! I've been in that blowdown and tag alder brushhole! It's as nasty as he says, he isn't exaggerating!" You'll be missed Jack, but thanks for passing on a wealth of knowledge while you were here.

Terrible loss of a good friend. I knew Jack for many, many years. As Area Biologist in AK (McGrath and Sitka) and Non-Game Biologist here in Fairbanks for Region III. Trapped, hunted and cut wood with him.

Trappers have lost a knowledgeable friend and supporter. Truly "one of us...," but BETTER! And the world of wildlife science has lost an incredible inquiring mind. His work in Asia and Alaska was unparalleled.

On the bright side, Jack has broken free of the terrible medical situation that was so unfairly placed on his shoulders.

As said by someone already, "Well that sucks".
Hard to argue against that sentiment, but now our work is cut out for most if not all of us to honor the man by being more like him even if it is only a little bit here and there.
Allow what he did and said that inspired you to rub off on you and sink in. We will all be better people for it.

Sad isn’t a big enough word.
I greatly enjoyed conversing with Jack and certainly enjoyed all he took time to show us.

RIP

We all meet people who make a indelible mark on our all our lives, and jack was one of those for me. His enthusiasm for knowledge and spice for life was remarkable to see and experience, and his ability to share that with others was a real gift.
Farewell my friend.
