| Publisher Description: It is 1832, winter still holds southwestern Colorado in its icy grip. Little Jacob Ogden was born in June and is about to take his first steps. His parents, Sam and Little Fire, have chosen to settle down in Grand Junction, Colorado. It has been a year of many changes, so far all good. In this ninth volume of the Sam Ogden Mountain Man Series, Sam and his Partner Clyde Patterson have decided to give up the life of a free trapper. They have decided to settle down in southwestern Colorado, in a new settlement called Grand Junction. Sam and Little Fire have made some new friends at the settlement of Grand Junction, the Olivers. John and Kate Oliver own and run the General Store, formerly the Trading Post of Grand Junction. They have adopted Sam and his family, sharing their home in Grand Junction. Sam, in turn, has invested his money from trapping in the Store, and is now part owner. Sam and Clyde bring many skills to the community. They have built a sleigh for the winter hauling of goods back and forth from the major supply center on the Santa Fe Trail: Bent's Fort. In this ninth volume of the Sam Ogden Mountain Man Series, "Bent's Fort Run," Sam and his partner, Clyde Patterson, are on a "run" to Bent's Fort for supplies to restock the store. As usual, they face challenges from renegade trappers, Indian hunting parties and the rough winter weather of Colorado.
