A few more.

Jim fulfilling his promise that he'd share some of his AK bison from last year. It was fantastic.


Me bloodying up the deck and taking care of meat and hide.



Discussion of how Jim is going to get to 70 yards and kill that huge bear with his traditional Hawken.

You weren't kidding! First picture made me say, out loud, "Geez, Santo!" (thank my Spanish wife for that particular exclamation being in my vocabulary lol)

In the first pic of the Lindell, there were no rods. Now there are rods and a net. Fish too? Livin' large!

Edit: I guess there were rods in that first pic, but regardless, did you get to bend one?

No fishing for me. Doctor says none of that until my wrist heals. Jace, Jim, and Frank gave it a try, half-heartedly. We were too busy searching for bears.

Take care of that wrist and stay away from pizza.

Sounds like a really fun and successful hunt. Congrats. Makes me motivated to start planning the logistics now of my (and my wifes) spring bear hunt there next year in the same area.

SE Alaska sure is a special place . . . and what a bear that is! I think a life sized mount would fit great in the Fresh Tracks office.

Fantastic read! This adventure should provide a couple of suspenseful Fresh Tracks episodes!

Take care of that wrist and stay away from pizza.

Pizza in a picnic basket usually attracts bears. At least those named Yogie.
