2 in 330s, 1 shot, and 5 in 220s. That 220 is becoming my favourite trap

Imagine those 220's are Fur Institute of Canada certified humane ones here in Canada. Mean traps.

Woke up both morning this weekend to tracks around outside the cabin. Wolf gave us a chance on Sunday morning. Great weekend hunt for caribou in my favourite location. Skinned for making mitts so it didn’t take long at all. Nice when you don’t have to split lips, do ears, etc. Using fur for the most practical purpose Good lights on the way up on Friday.

There wasn’t much left at the site after we loaded. This hunt was for elders so we took almost every edible piece as they prefer the little goodies (organs and guts) more than anything. We took all the shin bones for making grease. I’m sure some wolf or wolverine has checked it though. Even the part of the stomach that you would cut through to remove the guts is edible. Check it out next time and you will see lots of good fat in between the layers of that membrane. Good wolf country up that way for sure. They run the place

Thanks Ryan for the moose update I'm certain they and the caribou don't mind when you remove a few wolves from the land scape . Fresh caribou sounds real good I'm sure the elders enjoy every bit !
Thank you for the ride along , story and great pictures !
