Here are a few random shots from last year, or early this year... I don't have a good camera, or the time to really use one, but I try and document what I can in pics or video....
Hope they don't hurt the eyes to much....
This is a pic from the trapline.. facing north easterly..... East of my homestead about 4 miles or so......
This photo is from nearly the same spot facing west.. The bump at the top of the clouds is actually Denali... I picked a bad day to take the pic...
A bright moon on a freight run into town... It was pretty cold but a good morning to run the river.. I try and start out about, O dark:30, just in case of complications on the trail.....
The beginnings of a bridge, across an overflow creek, that can block me from getting the ATV across. My cabin is on the north side and the river is to the south. In spring snow melt and wet summers it can go out of its banks, and gets to deep for my four wheeler. Hopefully this fall it will be more than a foot bridge. I need to deck it, so my wheelers can cross in times of high water. It might not look like much, but a guy who has a weekend cabin near here, almost drown when his wheeler got swept down stream and pinned him against a fallen birch tree. This happened on the main trail where the creek runs wider... This little bridge is on my property just abot 50 yards south of the trapper cabin....
Sorry for the bad quality shot. I took this with my phone just as dark arrived. A very pregnant moose decided to claim my yard for a month or so.. In the right hand corner you can see my bear dog, "Kaksi", giving it the riot act... We could chase her off, but she would always come back.... She eventually moved off....
Hauling lumber up to the cabin from the river... I made outriggers to bolt to my racks, so I can carry 2x4's etc, without having to use a trailer.....
