Nice country there ... and yes just hanging a few snares near the grub pile ice was overflowed but froze again. and SW I have been waiting for wolves to show but pretty open country here so they dont live long. the net has caught a couple of Lizerd fish today so dinner is on...and yes Hup the heads went in the pot.  WOW!!!! We used to have burbot over here in the uk until about sixty or seventy years ago. Sadly they're now extinct. Would love to catch one before i die.Great pics guys.

Sounds like wishful thinking.
She and my daughter are in cahoots I'm sure. Daughter told me several years ago she had already picked out "the home". If not moon on the door, perhaps "bars on the windows?!!"

Since canned milk seems to be the cheapest way to go for Milk in AK,, what is the ratio of water to canned milk per gallon of milk ? Never used the canned variety before .

Generally half and half, depending on how cheap you are or how long until you can get more cans...the further from the store, the less you milk you put in the mix.
Rumors of my assimilation have been greatly exaggerated.

So it would take more than one can to equal the milk you buy in the store ?

Yeah. If you went thin (from what I recall, been assimilated to city life) you might get 1 can to stretch to 3 or for cans of water...if you went thin.

b fuller Thats too bad about your Burbot going extinct there was it because of water conditions/quality? I also get Pike in the net,both fish are an important food source for the folks here eaten frozen, boiled ,baked and dried.  Oh and I drink the box milk its almost $4 a qt here.

Jeff,
What are you selling those for in the village?
I loved the ones I got for the wife. I still am waiting for the plucked and sheared ones from them that I sent in.

I don't know anyone who uses canned milk. Think about the weight and the freight cost CAnvasback. Reason for the Canned Milk was that I ran out of the regular milk. Would have went to the store, but it was getting late with the Thanksgiving Dinner and I figured it would be a quick fix till I got to the store. Drink about a 1/2 gallon every day .
