This story was first published in Outdoor Life magazine in March 1918, and was later incorporated into the book, Tales of Lonely Trail, 1922, and later as a story in Zane Grey, Outdoorsman, 1972. It can also be found in Volume 1 of the paperback version of Tales of Lonely Trails published by Ace in 1988. It is a tale of brotherly rivalry between Zane Grey and his younger brother R. C. better known as Reddy. Zane Grey almost always had his brother with him on these hunting and fishing expeditions and competition was always involved as to who could catch the biggest or most fish, or bag the largest bear. Before too many years passed, for Zane Grey, it became the chase, the thrill of tracking and following the quarry which thrilled him the most, not the killing. And this story contains that thought as well--the time spent around the cvampfire, the horses and the dogs--these were the things he loved best. One must remember that travel--auto travel--was difficult in those days as little paved road existed, and once out in the wilds only horses could take you where you wanted to go. Here he is in Colorado in the shadow of Whitley's Peak chasing bears with a pack of hounds, and speaks of his philosophical change in relation to the killing of game except when in need of food. As I said earlier, most of the content of this story is about the exhilaration of the experience--the danger, the excitement, the physical exhaustion.
