"Anyone who has experienced
the remote beauty of the high country with only his horse for company
knows the gorgeous loneliness I have tried to show in this painting.
The trapline is an anchor to the outside world ... but the vastness
of the land, and its stillness, are what fix the soul of the man
to his Maker ... and move him to remain in isolation." -Jack Hines
