Burial in the Sky

The doormat at the entrance to Owl Farm, Hunter S. Thompson??™s redoubt in Woody Creek, Colorado, reads ???Come back with a warrant.??? On August 20, six months to the day after Thompson killed himself with a .45-caliber pistol, friends and family came back to a field behind the modest ranch house he shared with his young second wife, Anita, a few miles down-valley from Aspen. They came to fulfill their old friend??™s wish to have his ashes blasted from a cannon to settle across the streams and mountains he loved.

From the time the 300 or so guests assembled at Aspen??™s Hotel Jerome, where many had been drinking for most of the afternoon, to be shuttled out to Owl Farm, security was extremely thorough. Cameras, cell phones and recording devices were banned. The narrow country roads that thread the canyon where Thompson lived were lined by county sheriffs and black-shirted private security. The Woody Creek Tavern, where he so often held court beneath the shaggy head of a stuffed buffalo, was jammed for the occasion with an assemblage of Thompson fans from around the country who??™d flown, driven and hitchhiked to Woody Creek to share their loss.

One young bravo had a beautiful handmade guitar he wanted to present to Thompson??™s longtime sidekick Johnny Depp (who underwrote the $2.5 million celebration) to thank him for inspiring him to break his drug addiction. Another, a 38-year-old Californian who??™d just trekked over the Continental Divide, said he hoped to raise awareness of clinical depression and suicide. Two 26-year-olds had flown in from Wisconsin, and they??™d been sleeping in their tuxedos for three days. A pretty young blond had Thompson??™s symbol, a six-fingered fist holding a peyote button mounted on a dagger??™s head emerging from the word gonzo, tattooed down the back of her neck ??” and it was stenciled on the hoods of trucks parked across the road from the bar.
