Ran yesterday, left the house just as it started snowing and finished running with it still coming down. Perfect 1-3inches enough to hide my track smile Picked up another cross, 2 mink and the worlds smallest ermine smile

Put in a bunch more otter gear and hoping things start moving now that it is a little cooler.

Be safe out there guys!

Yeah Bruce a bait moose. Looks like old girl keeled over right beside the road which was nice for a easy recovery. If the troopers don't know what killed it they call fish and game and they contact a trapper to pick it up. Slow year which honestly aint a bad thing, our moose numbers are pretty down after the past few hard winters.

Timber Tramp picked her up on Willow Fishhook, Hatcher Pass.

Chikenminer I been using sheep/goat/ and pig guts, that's all I could score so far this year so the bait stations are pretty slim., only running 3 this year. Going to wait till it cools back down before I top them off so the fang birds dont wipe me out!

Nevermind then, the one I saw was at zero lake a few days ago. It probably went to the trapper list too, looked like a semi got her.
