I dunno where they been. Seems like the last nine months I would only see a handfull. Durring August the hunters outnumbered them.
The last few weeks I have been seeing them strung out from Atigun camp to the top of the Ice Cut.
You local fella's could manage a cool hunt if you pick a window where the weather is tolerable.
PLEASE take the time to put a CB in the truck. Heck, even a little handheald will make your life (and mine) a mite safer up there.
Watch out for the bright blue Kenworth with the larda$$ tanker in tow, I may be watchin for bou myownself :eek:

Dude.....ugg, no phone call LOL! Here I had a 3 day weekend to boot, ugg. ;) !
Tolerable weather, first part of january on the slope when it's dark what, all "day"? cough cough lol.
I have been waiting for Danny to call me but the phone never rings.....
-signed, bored in Juneau
Dang, my work schedule foils another great hunt...
cant help the fact your number isnt listed and you only call when you want info lol!
What, you don't have it written down somewhere? I not only have YOURS written down but even in my cell memory! Geez.
well...make use of it someday.....before you drop the phone into the ocean! And no I don't sorry. Threw it out cleaning the truck, I think :)
Dang miserable up there. Took over 54 hours to make a round trip. Minus thirty's on the warm side and as low as minus 56 in the river bottoms. Hard driving with the tractor so stiff and fretting keeping it going. A few of em died up there the last few days and are still sitting there like frozen lumps. Couldn't even get the tractor dragged out from under the load due to frozen fifth wheel jaws.
Still lots of critters moving.
I got a wolverine this am. Anyone know how much KE you get with a Kenworth? Killed em dead. Hide is in great shape considering I hit him nine times (every tire on the ditch side)
Supposed to warm up sometime this week.

They are tough to be out in -56 looking for something to eat. I bet he was still biting and clawing through the 6th or 7th wheel though, 8th or 9th one probably did him in. :)
It is a darn good thing that I swallowed that drink of coffee before I read that last one scotty. I would have spit it all over my screen if I hadn't!!! LOL I don't know if I would have got out of the cab to check em' out. dino
