If I wasn't already trapping in Heaven, I'd be on that. That is the deal of that day. Wolves, wolverine and they pay you to hunt and trap. Wow.

Too good to be true...

Sounds like Urban's place.

I saw that too, looks pretty good. Wonder how the trapping is.

It’s not Urban’s but close.

Would be an excellent adventure for someone.

I’m trapping near there and the fur is getting better.

Ahhh to be young again and have an opportunity to give it a shot!

whatever happened to the old forum member who spent the winter up in that area, he just kinda disappeared from Tman after that....

I believe that was BearBait. I think he took all his fur money and moved to a tropical island somewhere.....!

Dang, I got rid of the pesky wife. If it weren't for the pesky job (and bills) I'd be all over that too.

Too bad for having a "decent" job haha .

The best part is no pay.

Yeah, I guess the job isn't really the issue. I'd give that up in a heart beat if I knew the bills would be paid. Being a responsible adult sucks sometimes. I'm working on those bills though, so someday...

Someday: A long, windy road that leads to a little town called Never.

Do you really think that's a good job for a lower 48 dreamer? Wolves aren't exactly an easy target for your typical hobbyist coyote trapper.

A L-48 dreamer could do a good job of feeding the horses and keeping the place up. Would probably catch some more common furbearers. By the time he spent a couple winters there, there is no reason he could not become proficient enough to catch a few wolves and supplement his income with those incentives.

Heck, almost 50 years ago, I was a tall, skinny 'rat and 'coon trapper from NJ. But I had a dream. Here is the critical difference: instead of talking about it, I picked up and moved here. (Without a canoe....!) I even ended up catching a wolf or two, being President of the Alaska Trappers Association, holding an Alaska Master Guide license for many years and even serving on the Alaska Board of Game for a while.

If a NJ kid can pull that off, a L-48 dreamer with some spunk could make this opportunity work. (By the way, I'm still tall, but now I am fat too!)

If you are proficient with coyotes, you can trap wolves.

Yep. Taking this on and surviving is no less likely than pulling up stakes, rolling up the highway, buying a remote property, building a cabin, living off the grid, and having one's own little paradise.

If you can catch them here, then you probably can catch wolves if there are any. I listened to a tale last winter about a frustrated coyote trapper from the lower 48 that was disappointed he couldn't catch coyotes here.
