Subject: Any good adult Mountain Man books?
I remember reading Hatchet and My Side of the Mountain as a kid, and am interested in further reading that doesn't involve a kid protagonist or themes. Self-reliance, survival, and beard on beard sex a must!!

Seriously, anyone have any suggestions? Doesn't have to be American tales but that might help me ease into the genre.

I read his Titus Bass series years ago and remember them as being pretty good. Definitely Mountain Man stuff.
