Modern Day Mountain Man
Clip: Season 3 Episode 5 | 7mVideo has Closed Captions
Carson Pate maintains an early 19th Century lifestyle as a modern day mountain man.
Cache Valley resident Carson Pate lives every day like it’s the 1800s. As a modern day mountain man, Carson’s lifestyle is akin to that of the trappers & mountaineers of the American West in the early 1800s. It’s not easy — Carson crafts his own leather clothing & smiths his own tools — but getting away from the conveniences of modern society is exactly what draws Carson to the mountain man life.
