Carelessness

Sometimes when we do repetitive things we get a little careless. 

I was in the bush and came across a small birch tree across the

road. I grabbed the sapling with my left hand and swung my 

machete with the right. The angle of the blade was to shallow,

It glanced off the tree and sliced my finger at the knuckle.

I was by myself and lost a fair amount of blood. This just goes to 

show how quickly things can happen, next time I will be a 

lot more careful. Oh yeah this was the first time I swung this new

tool, sure is sharp!

Faces in the woods.

Went for a walk in the bush today and happened to notice a mark on the bark of a cottonwood tree. It was around ten feet off the ground and on closer inspection found that someone had carved a face on the tree bark, around four inches in diameter, very interesting.

A few Marten

Well lets hope NAFA. has a good turnout of buyers this year and the Marten prices are good, part of my friends 3 week catch.

Favourite places

Whenever I get home long enough to have a little spare time, and my wife lets me go, this is a part of BC. that I disappear into, the other side of the river puts me into total isolation.

Wolverine set

Last week I was lucky enough to get out and set a few traps, unfortunately I had to head back to work, so my friends are looking after them for me. Maybe one day I'll be able to have a little more time off, and relax a little more doing the things I enjoy.

Black bear

Browsing my pictures and found a couple of good

Bear pictures from this Spring.

The new Coyote combo. Thompson Icon 22.250 with Burriss 3x12x50 scope, and of course the Foxpro Fury electronic game call.
