Picked up a few more marten today and cut tracks of two wolverine. Plan on getting wolverine buckets out early December. Hoping for more snow and cold so we can get the snogos out and on to the rest of the line.....

Enjoying the mild temps and marking some muskrat pushups for spring, my wife counted about 80 on this one lake. Wolverine tracks all around the lake and checking out the beaver lodges. Sharptails are showing up and add a little extra fun when checking traps.

Got a few wolverine sets out and picked up some fur. Going to try and start getting some of the snogo trails in even though it will be a tussock rodeo with so little snow!

Its great seeing the entire family out enjoying the trapline and getting birds and bunnies. Looks like the action on the line is picking up.

Punched out one line but not enough sign to warrant setting traps. Saw some fox tracks which we haven't seen in a few years so that was good. We've finally been getting subzero temps so the creek should be frozen up well enough to travel on soon.

Enjoy following your adventures! Who makes that jacket that your son is wearing? Looks like wool?

Good to hear the weather is changing enough for you to expand! I think I still have a bit before I can do that here on my line. Congrats on the fur! Look forward to seeing those youngsters smiles when you guys get the bigger critters smile

It's fleece, from costco I believe. Only time I can afford wool is when I find it at a thrift store. Thanks for following along smile

Good to hear the temps and starting to work in your favor. Hope you find some more animal sign as you all open your lines up. I like the decorative touch on your trapping box.
