Mountain Man Journals at TrayerWilderness.com

Welcome to Mountain Man Journals at TrayerWilderness.com!

 

For those of you that have been following me at MountainManJournals.com, our family experienced so much growth in 2013 that it required us to rethink things and in an effort to simplify, we found it necessary to put all our educational materials under one roof.    So I have transitioned from MountainManJournals.com to TrayerWilderness.com.

 

I still offer the same materials and all my materials prior to the merger can actually be found here.  We will be able to provide you with so much more this way.  You will also be able to find my Mountain Woman’s and my Mountain Boy’s materials right here on this site as well.

 

To make it easy you can click on the Mountain Man Journals tab across the menu above and you will be able to find an easy drop down menu to locate my materials.  You can also use the search feature on our website to look for specific materials you may be interested in.

 

If you are looking for a certain topic and you cannot find materials on our site, please drop me a line and let me know what you are looking for at MountainMan at TrayerWilderness dot com.

For those of you that are new to our page.  My name is Glen Trayer.  I am an avid outdoorsman and spend every bit of my spare time in the wilderness.    The purpose of my website is to share my hunting, trapping, self reliance and outdoor knowledge with our readers.  I have been hunting and trapping since I was 7 years old.  My father was a farmer and made his winter living trapping.  He shared his knowledge with me and showed me the way.  I now take my son and share my knowledge with him.  Our lifestyle is very traditional and our goal is to be self sufficient and utilize all our natural resources to the best of our abilities.

In May of 2010, my wife, son, two dogs, a hamster and I moved onto our dream piece of land that we purchased site unseen.  We set up our 8′ x 14′ canvas wall tent, set up 3 cots and each had a small clothing tote.  We lived here for 8 1/2 months while we as a family built our own home.  It was an experience we will never forget and one we would go back to in a heartbeat.  My Mountain Woman refers to it as “Simple Living”.  She says that all your everyday daily stresses just go away and you regain your sense of purpose.  You regain your sense of gratification of a hard days work with many accomplishments and a job done to completion.  She is a web designer and worked on a portable solar panel and satellite internet to keep up with her businesses needs while we built our home.  Although she loves what she does and would never just throw her business out into the wilderness, but gained an extreme appreciation for living simply and now dreams of a day when she can truly live off the land and allow technology to move out of her life.

Join us together as we share our knowledge on the things we do here in the wilderness.

Be sure to check out Mountain Woman Journals and Mountain Boy Journals as well in the menu above and you will also find our store with varying handcrafted items as well as the MultiFlame Tools that I invented and manufactured.
