During the early 1940’s in Idaho’s expansive Selway-Bitterroot wilderness, a few items disappeared from a tent camp, then from a lookout tower, and a ranger station. Eventually, the continuing loss of food and supplies at such isolated sites confirmed the presence of a mysterious stranger. For years no one saw him, even though he entered forest service quarters while employees slept. In the winter, when he did leave tracks, they were found on the most inhospitable ridges and earned him the regard of locals who could appreciate the severe conditions and hardships of survival under such circumstances.

Historia
Patrick McManus, author of How I Got This Way and one of America's favorite humorists, is an impish commentator on the obvious and not so obvious absurdities of modern life. His national best seller, The Night the Bear Ate Goombaw, is a collection of hilarious short pieces about fishing, its exotic equipment, and activities like "gunkholing". You will learn, for example, that the best way to learn to fish is to build an addition to your house first.

Historia
In April of 1846, 21-year-old Sarah Graves, intent on a better future, set out west from Illinois with her new husband, her parents, and eight siblings. Seven months later, after joining a party of pioneers led by George Donner, they reached the Sierra Nevada Mountains as the first heavy snows of the season closed the pass ahead of them. In early December, starving and desperate, Sarah and 14 others set out for California on snowshoes and over the next 32 days endured almost unfathomable hardships and horrors.

What did you love best about The Ridgerunner?
This was read by DIck Estell on the Radio Reader on PBS 25 years ago and was fascinating then, still just as good on my second time listening to it. My Idaho friends tell me the Ridge Runner is still talked about today. He eluded forest rangers off and on for two decades and he still remains a mysterious figure. Gene Engene's narration is excellent. The local color and descriptions of the mountains and the characters are memorable. The fact that Mr. EngeneWhat was one of the most memorable moments of The Ridgerunner?
The Ridge Runner alone is a memorable character. The author really brings the other characters such as the forest rangers to life and it's easy to get a glimpse of how different life was in those days. Those mountains were very rugged and dangerous.Have you listened to any of Gene Engene’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Yes, he is a great narrator.Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
The mystery surrounding this man kept me wondering the entire book about who he really was. Many questions were answered but many remain unknown.Any additional comments?
Love this book, thanks so much for making it available.A great contemporary historical novel

I am somewhat familiar with the Ridgerunner's haunts which made the book come alive for me.
I found Moreland's (Ridgerunner) genius/insane personality as well as his twisted sense of humor fascinating, He was an amazing person in some ways and pitiable in others.
I enjoyed this book and consider it a part of the history of Idaho.
