Biographical History
Fritiof Melvin Fryxell (1900-1986) was a geologist, mountaineer, conservationist, and historian. He spent many summers in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and wrote "Mountaineering in the Tetons: the Pioneer Period, 1898-1940". He interviewed other climbers, including W.O. Owen, who is credited as the first to reach the top of the Grand Teton. Along with Jesse V. Howell, Fryxell did extensive research on Ferdinand V. Hayden and the U.S. Geological Survey, which explored the Yellowstone Park region in the 1870s. Fryxell wrote a number of other books and articles, including a biography of Thomas Moran and a biographical sketch of geologist François Matthes.
