On a rafting trip down the klamath river in Northern California this weekend, found that one of the river guides is a beginning fiddler with a strong interest in American old-timey music. He's having a hard time locating a teacher, let alone another old-timey fiddler in Shasta county. He doesn't have a computer, and makes his living as a river guide. If there aren't any old-timey style fiddlers there, any fiddler willing to give him lessons in some basic bowing and fingering to get him started would do just fine. Anyone know of fiddlers in Shasta or a nearby county? (Trinity, maybe?) I'll pass word on to him.

Thanks for any leads.
