FT, thanks a ton for posting the english version of happy village. I enjoyed all 4 hrs of the russian one. It certainly was nice to get some of what they were saying.
does anybody have a good take on that deadfall trigger. like a walk through drawing. I use the one in Krause's vid but that is a bit different. thanks again

I felt much the same way as you on this trigger. I just could not wrap my head around it. Knowing that I was probably not going to ever use it I decided to not pursue it. However last night this youtube was on the side bar of the Happy People.
This video gives a perspective that really explained it well.

Happy People is on Netflix! Watched it today, will probably watch it again. I'm interested in those skis, they look awesome!

I know those skis were very intriguing. Would love to see how they set up the bindings and moose hair.

That is pretty cool. A few years ago I got into a surface bite with that many halibut around. They attack anything. They would attack the lead weight as often as the bait. My daughter was splashing her hand in the water and almost got bit. She would have had she not taken her hand out of the water.

this is a video that I did and I think it is good. It starts a little slow but it goes to Dall sheep hunting then some wood cutting then a see through log set for wolverine then me trapping and killing a lynx. All in the Canadian arctic, Mackenzie Delta.

Nice vid m411. How far did you haul that log for the Gulo set?
The NWT is one of the few places I would want to move to. Canada wouldn't have my kind tho.

Enjoyable video Muskrat. Thanks for sharing. Would be fun to be able to hunt sheep like that.

I hauled it about 25 miles but it was a drift log so it probably hauled itself down a couple hundred miles from the upper Peel river.

Well it has sheep. But to get to just harvest one for food off your snowmobile like that happens in only a few remote areas. There are trophy hunts but that is a whole different story.

Any thought on the work this guy does? Any other good or better videos out there? Will be watching more Youtube.

Good Stuff Temple. We all find ourself with less than the perfect tool. A pocket knife will do if needed.
I really liked this video. He uses one of my favorite tricks. Using a line to hold the legs where I want them.
The belly hair patch removal is one I would like to try but feel it may be a little hairier than just a single slit.
A saw makes it easier but many times I don't have one with me at gutting time. This guy is truly a professional. We can all learn a few tips from him. His rib meat removal is splendid.

Yeah, his rib boning blew my mind! Will make my life much easier.

I am a pretty close trimmer and not so sure taking between the ribs woud be worth it unless you ground very soon after. And they were very clean in side. Never been a rib eater. But there is a lot of burger outside them for sure. The little quarter inch depth of meat you actually get from between is, well frankly not much worth boning. But I will try this method in the future.
