Man, that's awsome! Isn't it wonderful how the landscape changes in winter. Some good stuff out there for those that dare.

Oh my. What incredible colors in the ice. Cool Stuff WB.

X2!

WB Awesome Photos!

Great pics as usual WB. Do you have studs in your track?

Beautiful stuff !

quick question on UHMW plastic. what thickness do you guys use up there for your sleds and additions to your snowmobiles? 1/8. 3/16, 1/4? How much does a sheet cost just doing some comparative shopping right now.

For sleds - Northern Sled Works uses one quarter inch, high quality, UV resistant. No reason to go thicker, unless you have some custom needs or unusual conditions. For sleds , stay away from the black or recycled, non UV stuff.

Others on here have recently purchased UHMW locally and down South. They will hopefully chime in with prices and venders.

Sailing anyone...

It's supposed to get like that here too but the seas won't be nearly that high.

Kind of like the meringue on a lemon pie? We have had some really crappy weather for 4 or 5 days... and more to come.

AkA- Nice kitty! I like the face mask on lynx.

Nope not alot. I always had short lines, in between areas. This year i have my dads old line but its been pretty slow going.

Those cats aren't as well "endowed" as other species.

That mistake been made by a few. You catch-en them that is what matters.

I've done that a few times, the way cat's plumbing is hooked up it is easy to confuse. Not sure why they are designed to poke out the back like that.

One great "lure" is to drain a female lynx after you dispatch her. Well caught a nice female...and I did everything I could. Finally, I turned her back over and she, turned out to be a he.

I think it is so they can back it up and spray urine all over everything. I remember a lion at a zoo one time (back when they were in steel cages and not enclosures) turning his back on a bunch of gawkers and letting it rip all over 'em. Glad I was about 20 feet away...lol!

I wouldn't mind getting ones like that, need to set out for them this week, just have body grippers out for wolverine so far

thanks akassassin, I will probably do that, I have been using fish skins and ptarmigan for bait, caught two gulos so far, and one lynx. Have seen less rabbit tracks this year so I hope I will be able to get some, just seen maybe seven rabbits this whole winter so far.
