Houndsman Killed

[Machias]

A hound hunter down in Kooskia, Idaho was killed day before yesterday.  Jason Mills was a nice guy.  He trained two of my pups for me last summer on bears.  Was a heck of a good hound hunter, treed a ton of bears every year and a lot of cats over in that area of Idaho.  Looks like he was setting up camp, was removing his rifle from his truck and it discharged and killed him.  Dogs were still in their dog box.  Be careful out there, don't get complacent handling those firearms.  Sad deal, totally avoidable.

I was with 3 couples that found him on Friday the 20th.  He was at a camp along Cow Creek Rd. NE of Riggins, Id.  A few more comments when I get back from a Dr. appt.   Very Sad
