A Really Good Moose Hunt
We hunted just about all of the entire, brief, season— it closed Monday at midnight after less than two weeks. We heard the news from John and Henry Monday evening when they stopped by our camp on their way down the river. John has an airboat, so we always know when...
A Little Re-Entry News
I was feeling a little smug this morning, what with all that snow and winter weather in the Lower Forty-eight, and all this sunshine and lack of snow here. (It's so dry up high that I've heard the heli-ski season is in doubt. You can see rocks on top of the mountains...
