Bear Valley, CA...The Bear Valley Music Festival tent had a good sized crowd on hand for historian Don De Young's lecture on the secrets of Monte Wolf.

Above is the 1909 booking photo of Archey Wright (Monty's true name) at Folsom Prison where he served 15 months for a minor burglary. The physical report accompanying the photo said he had many scars and gouges as well as two amputated toes, and described him as very muscular.
