    Why do I think that creature isn't as cuddly as it looks?

    Well, they are predators. Rumor has it that a pack of them can turn an adult bison into a pile of bones within a minute.

    Hmmm. How many of them would it take to skeletonize an adult Eyedclaar?

    Another local boy? What the hell? Looks like we're taking over, pit people. Prepare to dress in animal furs from now on!

    That's what snowshoes are for, to stay on top of that 20 feet of snow. Plus we can build snow caves. Weeeeee!

    actually, 1969...there was nearly 40 feet of snow here and my folks had to snowshoe to the house and break in the loft window which is 35 feet off the ground...it was a shitload of snow :shock: :lol:

    That's a nice area of the country. I've taken 2 trips out that way and it was just simply beautiful there. Wouldn't mind going back again...

    I had to go back and find my wife this weekend. She started on the east side of the range, I started on the west and we met somewhere close to the middle. No GPS, just topo maps. I had to run the moose gauntlet (3 close encounters) and she woke up with a sow grizzly and two cubs foraging near her tent, but otherwise no serious issues. I admit, I get a little worried for her sometimes, but she knows what she's doing out there.

    Norm, did you see some marmots? I can't watch the clip at work... Hoary marmots tried to steal our meatballs!

    That's nothing. I went camping in Maine this weekend at a resort camp ground and was surrounded by French Canadians.
