Bear Run Hunting Lodge

J.T. Steedley Passes

My daddy, J.T. Steedley, passed away on Jan. 23, 2012. For those of you who have hunted with us, you know how much Daddy loved the woods and Bear Run Lodge. We are still trying to recover from the loss of my son, Micah, who passed on June 5, 2010. Micah was the heart of Council and Bear Run Lodge, and Daddy was the soul and backbone. My staff and I will try to continue the great hunting experience we offer to all our guests and in doing so honor the memory of both Micah and Daddy.

Jamie Steedley,
Owner, Bear Run Hunting Lodge
