From early Spanish explorers to 20th century outfitters, a Sierra Nevada resident chronicles the history and lifestyle of the men (and a few women) who worked on mule pack trains--a major industry in early California. Jackson also discusses the role of packers in the early conservation movement. She includes period photos, maps, and the lyrics of a 1929 song about packers.
