1100 Remington man Very nice looking aircraft and an excellent record. Congratulations. I dont fly anything that nice unfortunately. You will enjoy having your float license and if you do get to Alaska or the northern part of any of the Territories in Canada you will need it. We fly "float"...

I was ask about the current weather conditions and the dogs in the weather. They tell me last night the wind chill here was minus 45 ( in your language ) but I am not where the dogs are. The wind chill at home was only minus 25 last night ( again in your language) The dogs each have their own...

Earle, you are correct sir, those Hudson Bay boats are pretty slick, especially for fishing and duck hunting. We do use them but we also use the classic canoe, similar to the Tripper that Scott builds and that is what we used on the Yukon river trip and when we travel up and down the Mackenzie...

I am back at work and have zero time but April ask me to look at Earl's boat that he built. Earle, it is VERY nice, well done sir. Earle, We still teach, and build kayaks from willow, seal and caribou products, but few=very few= use them anymore. Same with canoes, everybody has moved away...

Cole, your half right. Earle would be the one to share stories with, as would salmonchaser, Dr Mike, Hodgeman, April, Gil, Gerry----these guys and girl have been there, done that, bought the tshirt, worn it out and bought another one. I am just a poor Indian girl trying to scrap together her...

Bill I know this was not exactly your question when you started this thread but with your permission While I was home for the holidays, I was instructing 4 young girls (12 to 14) on how to handle a dog sled, build an igloo, and build and use a Kudlik, which is a lamp using seal oil and...

I have been ask to expand on my comments to Mr Miller Sir, I used a 30-06 and Rem Core Lokt for years on all game without a problem. However I dont remember ever shooting an animal at 300 yards, are shots are/were much closer. Approx 3 years ago I was mentoring a young lady and got her a...

THIS ! I know I will catch a little flak for this but wanted to tell you Mr.Miller that I used a 30-06 and store bought ammo for several years, in fact it was the only rifle I owned for several years, and used it for everything ( wolves white bears and everything in between, including brown...

good luck with your project

EXACTLY ! Guy, you and Earle nailed it, I have a dozen different sizes and they all work in different situations --However, I did recommend to April, to get the young lady some MSR.s, as they are very good snow shoes and she will never be in as much snow as I live in. She may run into a...

Gil, good recap of hunting different animals and you are right the Wolverine is not an easy hunt. Wolves can be hard to hunt, but I will have to stay with the brown and white bear as being a difficult hunt, especially when you add the fact that they can turn the tables on the hunter pretty...

We dont usually "hunt" wolves but we have ( and you can ) track Arctic wolves, when we deem it necessary to reduce pack size. However as has been mentioned wolves for the most part are an opportunity kill. However unless we are specifically attempting to protect a moose birthing area, we...

Hi Gerry, how are you? Our grandfather has a 9.3 x 62 and a 9.3 x 64 and they are very nice calibers. Since as you said it comes with iron sights which is all you need as a camp rifle it is an excellent idea. Great classic caliber, inexpensive rifle, and a bear stopper for sure, plus a good...

LOL good one Earle. Earle, got to play with a Grumman Goose a couple weeks ago, that was different April, arranged everything you need in order to get that stuff for her. they are waiting for your call

had both internet and a free moment and saw this Guy, I think I am missing something as I would be o.k. with your red dot hit on elk, moose, deer, caribou, bear, etc, If a dedicated hunt, 300 H & H, 200 gr, sitting if terrain allowed, otherwise a 348, 250 gr, probably offhand , but would...

Several have ask me to respond as we live with wolves on a daily basis. I agree with Dr Mike, I also question the hunter's version of the story. I also agree with Bear, yes the wolf could have turned, we all have had animals turn, not just a wolf. Possibly if the wolf was rabid she might have...

David, thank you sir I do like the 348, and find it works for me, although others may enjoy different lever acton calibers and/or bolt action rifles. I have been told my post yesterday was too "opinionated' , hopefully this edited post is more palatable to everyone On the other hand I would...

I agree Dr Mike. After he found the blood he should have circled. However since I know this post will be printed out and mailed, I think I will pass on any further critique. Dr Mike, you are as always correct sir. They can be a very tough hunt, as they are hunted in winter. Sleds to scout...
