Howard Knutson passed away today. He was 90. Many on here might not know who he was but he was a larger than life legend. He was a pilot and guide that opened up the Upper Chitina Valley. He had his hand in taking or being part of many legendary sheep hunts. He moved to the Slope after they closed the Wrangells and did well up there as well. I hope that wing is at his wings and he flies on to the happy hunting grounds of the hereafter.
