(Trappers from other states are welcome to) I went to climb a mountain yesterday and cut trail. Stuck on frozen dirtsickle first hill. Comealong catch froze up, so had to keep beating it closed every crank with wire snips. First tree I want to cut, chainsaw won't run. Carb won't supply fuel. Must be froze up. So much for cutting. Since I took the VK to make that first hill, I almost broke a leg about three times stopping it from tipping on all the humps. I ran through and over hundreds of devils club. Not a bad day. I still have a windshield and didn't get any new devils club thorns festering in me today. Last edited by Dirt; 01/04/25 11:18 AM. Who is John Galt?

I did a deer hunt in Hoonah and there was a lot of devils club that I had to weave thru
