Cool video.
I get a kick out of some of these guys though. They live in a wood house, many times have 2-3 wood/log trappers shacks, heat with wood, and clear wood/trees to make trapping trails, which is all fine and extremely cool. But, when they come across a logging operation where wood is being cut for the rest of the country it’s a travesty. Hard to have it both ways. That timber is a renewable resource just like beaver and is being managed and harvested as such. JMO.
Since what the late 60’s I’ve been flying into far bush camps and seeing the devastation a forest fire up there can bring is nuts. Even as of late with all of our technology we can’t bring those hot ones to bear and for as far as you can see it’s lakes and grey ash covered rock. Lightening is the starting culprit as a rule.
No different than the wildlife, proper management of the forests is important. Those big forest fires have bad meanings for both the wildlife, and I’ve seen where too much ash washed into a lake/waterway has a very detrimental affect on the fish.
