RE: Alaska Thread
Seems I may have opened up a little can of worms here!!
ABM - Maybe 3 or 5 or 7 on the missing arrow report shooting at reds, but may I point out the other side of that, with 15 Ptarmigan and 1 goose using 1 arrrow!! By the way, that goose was a head shot at 60 yards!!! But I think you are right, there are some things that are best left alone, such as " That camp should be around here somewhere....Hmmm lets go back and look somewhere else" right you " sacrilegus........." !!
Juno grl/Nim - Well the house may be in the Valley, but that is a rental unit and I am just taking money from those Valley people the way I see it!! (yes I have convienintly forgotten that I lived in it for 3 years). The boats are all on Douglas Island, that ha to count for something!!! There are probably some things I know about one of you that would make good conversation around here. but I will have to wait until this flack has layed down a bit before I bring up kitchen accedents!!
Juno grl/Phish - Do either of you know when the King Crab season ends in the Juneau area??? I will be down in April and am hoping that it is still open... Wouldn' t mind haveing a nice fresh King Crab for a meal!!!!!

Ah, jeez, SEAK, you had to go there, didn' t you. Hey, all I can say is that that avocado was attacking me, and it was self-defense. That wiley avocado just jerked away at the last minute, causing blood loss on my part. I did finally kill it though.

RE: Alaska Thread
Thanks for welcome everyone.
The moose was shot in 21e during a two week winter hunt. I got it between Aniak and Holy Cross.
I shot the musk ox on Nunivak last weekend. I stood in line here in Bethel to get the cow tag. Yes, the meat is awesome. We have had a roast and two packages of steak already.
Arctic Bow Man, thanks for editing that link. I' m not that great at getting pictures or links to show.

SEAK - Boy, they are sure giving you a ride aren' t they! ' Course I knew it would be easy to get them started - LOL. Brother Mike seems to be doing fine. He is putting in a lot of miles doing laps in the malls, and has started in on some engine projects (which is a good sign).
I had a great time over in Sitka, but I suspect I got there just in time to kill the bite. I brought a nice 22-pounder back home with me along with some blackcod " tips" and will have some fine eating for awhile. Yesterday it was too snarly to fish - SE at 35 kts and confused seas, so we got out far enough in Sitka Sound to know we didn' t want to go any further and turned around. We were hopping around pretty good even with a the stabilizers in the water! But the day before it was a beautiful ocean and my buddy and I had a great visit.
And. . .I hate to burst your bubble SEAK, but I recently moved back over to the eastern side of the Bridge, and can' t believe how much I missed the afternoon sun! Its nice being able to walk to work, the gym, the grocery store, and etc. Also, being from Tee Harbor, I always thought I WAS an aristocrat, compared to everyone else in the Juneau area!
Welcome to the Board, Kusko and Juno Gal! Nice looking m/o, Kusko. And we really do talk hunting on here most of the time - in between ribbing each other a lot!
