RE: Hunting pics from the last few years
Arctic, you achievements are something else! You're a fortunate man. Adorable youngsters, great home, great job (I assume) and great country, what else could you ask for? By the way, is that a blonde phase griz? Awesome rug!

RE: Hunting pics from the last few years
Great buck Mitch! I love the pig tail drop tine! I scanned through some of your myspace last night. I didn't realize you were up to 3 kids? Did you figure out what causes that yet? 
We are done at two after going through a couple of difficult deliveries. I'll definately be keeping in touch now. It's nice to finally have some roots and be settled down.
Rick, we've still been doing the dipnetting each year. It's been a long time since we've had a really good year and pulled in a bunch with little effort. This year we got a hundred and fifty or so but it took some effort. Having the right boat for the job definately takes the edge off. I've got a few video's on youtube so I'll post some links later on. I picked up a new camera several years ago to get some better quality footage. Unfortunately I haven't gotten too many kills from hunting on video, but I have a few.
early in, that is an arctic grizzly. We get a bunch of different color phases up north, this guys is a little more common. They switched to a drawing permit up here the year before, otherwise this guy would probably be on my floor as well. I played around with him for a couple of hours, and got within 20 yards a few times. The first time he saw me and came my way, I thought I was going to be lunch! Here is some video of him... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJFv1LBAVls
