Those are swift fox, and couple red fox, and one badger that didn't want to leave trap. in top right

There are marten in the high country here, we target a few every now and then.
Just not worth the effort in the deep snow to chase them. The national forest close
Gates Dec 14 each year and only accessible by foot or snowmobile.
So we trap the fringes of snow line and canyon country.

Thank you for all the kind words.
Our kids all know the meaning of hard work and success.
When they get into a rhythm they are unstoppable.
They love the outdoors and everything that comes with it.
They have already picked the rifles, revolvers and fishing gear they want to buy
With their proceeds.

They got access to a friend's ranch and have been busy gathering deer and elk sheds.
They fixed fence for the access to gather sheds and hopefully to trap it this winter.

That is way more than impressive. Wow, I can't imagine the time and effort that went into that catch with cages. Congratulations, young men!!


I'm just happy to be here! Today I'm as young as I'll ever be and and older than I've ever been before!

In cages is very impressive just think what they would catch in a coil spring
