LOL! You still crying about that? He put you on 'em didn't he? The banana peels are ripe and extra slick this year! I had several impressive near calamities.
A fellow I know fell about 400' yesterday breaking ten ribs, puncturing a lung, shredding a knee and breaking a leg. Got rescued by helicopter and medivaced to ANC last night. Core temp was 90F when they got him to the hospital. South Road System hunt.

Was it from a banana peel?

Kinda. He and his buddy were side hilling with crampons and it sounds like he lost the bite in the slick stuff after his crampons loaded up. He slid, then free fell about 40 ft off a cliff then bounced down the hill until he hit a big rock. That last rock did most of the damage. Sounds like he is doing ok given the circumstances but no doubt will be hurting for a long time.

OH, BOY, ALASKANS ARE NOT GOING TO LIKE THIS !!!!


If a section in the federal Farm Bill does not get renewed, the price of MILK WILL DOUBLE !!!

Better stock up on Ice Cream while it is still cheap!!

Went exploring this year for moose, well not really I spent a lot of time studying the map and moose harvest records for different GMUs. Found a spot next to a healthy pop. and was hoping there would be over flow into the drainage I was hoping to navigate up. Found a healthy number of moose and we brought two home. No hunter pressure except for us for the most part and no real sign of it in the past. We saw five bulls (heard a few others) and shot two all that we saw were old fellas with the degenerating antlers. Did not really pick through just took what we could get. We passed on two, one at dark and one to far from camp on a fuel run. Both of those were bigger than these. We will see what happens next year if we can get back up in there. These old nasty bulls taste great I aged my hind quarters 11 days.

Very nice Nook. Your prep paid off.

AWSOME Nooksack thanks for sharing the pics.....

Looks like dry weather too. What's that all about ?

You wouldn't know it by the picture but that river is a whole different color than when we got there and about three feet higher, that was the last day and only day without rain. The other shots were taken between rain storms.

I believe it !

That tarp didn't turn into a water bowl? Great looking bulls!

Funny we have little hunting pressure here. I guess people look at the harvest records. I saw two moose this fall so far. Dang Armpit!

Here's some fall harvest Data from 2011 for moose.

14A 2,561 sq mi.......550 moose
16A 1,850 sq mi.......132 moose
16B 10,405 sq mi......108 moose

Tip for you valley fellas. "Don't go west young men!"

How you like that Extreme Shallow?

shot this griz this morning trying to take out one of the dogs, he already stole 3 quarters of moose and half a caribou from meat house's in the middle of the village a 100 yrds from the school and buried it.

Nice bulls Nooksack. and nice bear Takotna bet everyone in town was glad to see that one was done for.

That dog must think his bark killed it..lol

I had one get at my my meat that we had hanging in my neigbbors smoke house, it burried the quarters of a big bull under grass and leaves in the back yard but then he ended up paying for it too.

not going to be scoring that one for BnC.....

Nice bear, is the hair short or is it just the picture? it appears he is lacking some hair.

It looks like a big bear. I know our really big bears never really get good hair. I bet that was a sight! .38 revolver??

We tried some of those rebar drowners this weekend. Man, they work great.

Good one to get rid of. Are his teeth as bad as the last one ?
