O F F T H E G R I DElectric Hawkeye. Idaho peaks in a lightning storm over a beaver lodge.
Login: ehawkeye Title: Partner
Coverage: The American Worker
Board: The Idaho Castor Company (Chair)
Crew: Snake River Krew [SRK], 1991–1997
Location: Off the grid.
PLAN
The firm found Electric Hawkeye in 2023 in the mountains of central Idaho, living without electrical service, the handle notwithstanding. Holds an Idaho resident trapping license, on file with the firm.
Electric Hawkeye is a poor shot. It has not mattered. Beaver are trapped, not shot, and no one the firm has met knows beaver better: where they will build, when they will move, and what a dam is worth before the water rises behind it.
Electric Hawkeye has no telephone, e-mail, or street address. Messages are left at the ICC field office and collected when convenient.
PRIOR VENTURES
Exited a concentrated position in Beanie Babies in the summer of 1999, ahead of the broader market, and has described the exit as “the only time a collectible has done what it said it would.”
