That's neat you found those. A few years ago, I was toodling around a meadow with about a foot of snow on the ground, when I was brought to an abrupt halt, almost flying over the handle bars because I was standing up while riding, looking for shed antlers. When I got off to see what stopped me, I found it was a dead head, upside down, with one antler frozen in the water, and the other antler above ground at an angle, and the tip of one of my skis had went under the upside down paddle, bringing me to a dead stop. No trees within a hundred yards of where I was, thought I was safe standing up while driving.
Psalm 34:6

Thank You Ryan, got big $ for him. The whole pack was black!
I love the smell of burning spruce-- I love the sound of the spring time goose--I love the feel of 40 below--from my Trapline I will never go.

One year I was running a plowtruck opening the ice road and I felt my plow run over something. Turns out it was a moose frozen in the river ice and my one way plow skinned the exposed part.. Foxes ate down into the ice and I shot quite a few of them watching over that hole. Eventually I had to go and fill it in with water though to avoid any accidents. Another year I found a cow and calf frozen in out by my spring geese camp. Caught some foxes but the wolves and wolverines avoided it for some reason I still cant figure out.

Very nice finds on the moose horns ! Years ago while trapping beaver I found a bull buffalo skull in a beaver dam no caps and a long way from any buffalo pastures that I knew of . Keep the great pictures and story's coming ! Allan

Here's hoping for a smooth delivery!
Rumors of my assimilation have been greatly exaggerated.

Thank you! We have three girls and it looks like the one on the way is a boy. (Poor kid will have 4 moms!) We have not completely decided on a name. Allan- I will put the idea out there, but I am not making any promises. Haha!
