    Yeah. I've not been able to get out to the cabin this winter, or last moose season which kinda really hurt inside. I had to have my lower back fused. Got that done now so really ready. Been in the 50s in the day though so times ticking on using snogos to ride out. Be really nice to set up...

    Merry Christmas to all!

    Looks like we have a Chinook coming. Getting windy and forecast for warm weather. Mid 20s or so. The new snow is great. Things look sooooo nice. The extra hard freeze should help the good stuff in chaga get better. And the snow makes harvesting it easier. That's why I was standing on my snogo if...

    My favorite place, our cabin

    Bear boards. Beautiful and hammered in a couple boxes of nails through 1/2" plywood. Hopefully keeping the bears at bay. I do have a give an atta boy to the pilot we use in the summer. Dave at N2Alasksa. Out of Talkeetna. He hasn't raised our price in near 10 years we've used him. Probably...

    My favorite place, our cabin

    The moment I saw Alaska I was hooked. I was setting in a bar with my buddy. I say, let's go for a drive. Back then it usually meant grabbing some beers n cruising. Maybe stop n go fishing. He asks where. I say, I've never been to Alaska. Let's go there. Couple days later I had sold my...

    your wild game isn't organic

    Yeah right. Because government says so. Well maybe in this guys way of thinking. Not mine I'll believe what I want

    What you learn if you spend enough time hunting wild game

    The opportunity to be out is more important than harvesting game. You don't need all that stuff

    What are your highly educated opinions on tech in hunting?

    Different strokes for different folks. I grew up using a compass. And that's all I still use. I do look at Google earth. For me it's the experience. I'm blessed to be able to get out into bush ak all by myself. A lot of the time there isn't phone reception either. Identifying habit. Sign...
