    Hello all. I was able to get the TnG pine for the lid upstairs, 100 gallons of gasoline, a new generator and an old mini freezer out to the cabin this spring. We are planning on flying out in a couple weeks to spend some time finishing up projects n looking for moose antlers, RnR. Both kinds...

    Alaska... The Sunshine State

    Right on ! I've been too busy. And will change that though. Need to get our grandson out, he's 5. Can't hardly wait to see him mix it up with a nice silver salmon. For now we have a little pond with some nice sized pike in it. And Nana can get some padding in as we will use a canoe.

    Land locked public lands

    Do they have a plan? Other than ask folks. What steps are they implementing to get to what specific goals? Access to public lands has always gotten votes but were still loosing. I do wish them well in their endeavors. And all the lawsuits that tie things up on purpose. Folks should be asking...

    USFS Halts Prescribed Burns

    I'm kinda thinking that if they had timber sales and used the trees it would be better than planned prescribed burns. And have access roads for firefighters when needed, create green belts of diversified forest habitat. Reduce costs for better management

    "Alone" season 9 premiere tonight May 26

    As a guy who enjoys the outdoors n getting out I watch it. I'm more interested in the type of skills that they use while in the bush. For me, I'd be starting a log cabin on day one. Won't be long before the critters in the area figure things out n get spooky or avoid the area. It's cool see...

    Find fiddlehead ferns, find antler drops

    I've seen areas near our cabin where moose have moved 2' of snow to get at the fiddlehead ferns that are formed n under the plant. Litterally looks like a bomb went off. With forest duff scattered in a 50' patch. I believe that they smell them n are ready for some fresh greens. And can keep...

    What do I need to know about Moose

    I've had some drop in water. My buddy Rambo n me were out for a month in a back slew of the Big Su river. I spotted a nice bull the night before. Up at daylight, cought him crossing a large braid of water. Rambo waited until the bull got up the 6' sluffed off edge. Before the bull got into the...

    What do I need to know about Moose

    I prefer to call them. Moose can be very weary. And can hear everything. I believe that they see very well too. Moose do not like getting out in the open I like to find funnel spots where different patches of woods connect. This can be done with maps. Find the trails and make a blind...

    Favorite animal to hunt?

    I enjoy moose hunting the best. Calling can be lots of fun and figuring out which calls and when, how to use them. And if done good enough I've had wolves come in.

    Storing camp food in AK? No trees. E fence?

    I've never used a fence. And just like your buddy I keep the meat near. If it was a hundred yards away it would be too tempting for bears. As per camp or me. My sense is that they are busy being bears and trying to find food they know. Reducing risk, and trying to keep from getting beat...

    Winter Mortality in Interior Alaska

    The moose are all looking pretty healthy around here now. Nice flat shiny coats. The second round calves probably had a tough time as I have only seen one I believe. We currently have a cow with a calf hanging around. Real large bull print out back a couple days ago. Yeppers most of the...

    Sh*t our kids do

    Kids, well they grow up. Our wonderful daughter n me were out at our remote cabin hunting for moose for a few days. Actually she rebuilt the carburetor n fuel pump on the suzuki 4 wheeler and restricted me to the front deck doing moose calls n drinking whiskey while not out in the blind. After...

    Decolonizing conservation - shortcomings of NAMWC

    No law is perfect. The NAM helps all users. Yes the money collected goes to the state. And is open to all , equally. In Ak local knowledge is considered. In my opinion, the biggest problem is that we have 2 management systems. Federal system using passive management and state using harvesting...

    Life... Reflection.

    Nice comments. I try to believe that our differences is our strength. I know I don't have all the answers. Your knowledge base comes from your life's experiences and the Good Lord made us all individuals. Our common goal is using and protecting our public lands and natural resources such as...

    This Happened to me
