What a Great character on "Mountain Monsters"!! After he stopped doing the shows, I never watched it again. He was the driving force behind the series and it wouldn't ever be the same without him.

Trapper brought one of the most entertaining groups onto Discovery! While it's correct that "reality" television is not reality, the entertainment value from the cast is what keeps shows on the air. And growing up and living in Appalachia, I felt like Trapper reignited a passion of folklore and storytelling for many.
To his family and loved ones may God continue tp bless you and rejoice in his journey over to eternal peace. Take comfort in that you will see him again!

As loyal fans of Mountain Monsters, my son and I developed an attachment to each member of the team and became very fond of all of them. Trapper stood out as one that always seemed to remain calm and level headed. We feel the team won't be the same without his gentle presence, and our hearts, thoughts and healing prayers go out to the team members left behind, his family and friends.

So very sad to learn of Trapper’s passing. He was a man among men. Leading and guiding his
team through the mountains and forests. He never thought of himself....always others. The team shall go on, but not be the same. He will be sorely missed.

My he was full of surprises that I did not know. Attending Ohio University and enlisted in my branch of service too. I apologize for my late signing of the guestbook. Since I know of him only by the TV show, I was shocked to learn of his passing here on 06/04/2020. To his real family. I hope somebody (perhaps a pastor) or his home church (assumption) has been with y'all and the grieving process hopefully was gently brief. If y'all never had such comfort happy to pray with and for all of you.

Hes hunting for bigfoot in the great mountains. RIP. I only started watching mountain monsters about 3 years now and I was hoping that trapper would get better. But he knew more about bigfoot than anyone else will ever know.

Thank you, Mr. Tice for the hours of entertainment you provided for me and my son. We were both right there with you in spirit as you and your team tracked through the woods in search of creatures. What a wonderful escape from my workaday world inside a small cubicle. We will miss you.
