THE SCOUT: Traditionally, North American Indian tribes called their scouts wolves. These scouts were the most trusted individuals within the tribe, belonging to a mysterious medicine society of their own. Upon their trusted word stood the well-being and safety of the tribe and every member in it. Even chiefs bowed down to the wisdom of their scouts. These men were warriors, trackers and trailblazers, but most of all these were men of incredible skill and pride. This series honors them.
