It really is! and yes, good to see wildlife out there protecting our resources. I couldn't agree more...

Quite obvious you don't no shit. One woof kills between 18 and 22 elk a year. They nearly wiped out the elk in yellow stone park were 25 k now 2500 at last count. There's never been any sickness in yellow stone or any other states ever 2 kill that many animals in history. Over population of woof killing 24 7 is the cause.you can try to white wash it 2 cover your fucked up analogy. The human is the top of the food chain they couldn't wipe out a population of game 2 feed there families. Killing a couple animals a year. Predators can and are every day

Glad you like them! and thanks for leaving a comment.

Glad you enjoyed it, and yes... Makes the check-stops painless for all involved if you had dotted our ii's and crossed your tt's and these two gents were kind enough to due an re-enactment of the stop... As you know, they have a tough job dealing with the general public, but if everyone followed the rules and regs, it would make everyone involved lives much easier.

Glad you like them Glenn thanks for watching.

Very welcome, thanks for watching Kirk.

Glad you like them! Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment.

My pleasure! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

It was fantastic out there yesterday. Cold but beautiful...

Yes they were both great, and we talked a lot off camera as well. They have a hard job dealing with the general public, unpopular at times, but we need them out there. These two were good sports about everything.

Within 90 minutes drive you can have 350 million year old fossils, scenic coastlines and whales, walk on the earths mantle and on the floor of an ancient ocean of Iapetus that predates Pangea, see the barrens, the taiga forests, dense forests of Newfoundlands tree species, sandy beaches, etc.... It's a special place in this every changing world.

Yeah cold day but beautiful day.

Oh don't talk snow Mac, we are getting hammered now.... Snow and drifting snow.

I know what you are saying brother. It's such an amazing land

Yes Wallace, pretty country but can be tough to navigate through.

That's why I took it off, it was buckled when riding with it on. But because I was hunting, snaring or trapping I was not mandated to wear a helmet at all.

Well said Tom! Yes every good ski-doo into the hills brings flashbacks of my youth, hunting, snaring, trapping and fishing with dad and grandfather. Plus the slower you go the more you get to see.

Yes Garry you've got that right. And thanks my friend

Glad you enjoyed it

Glad you enjoyed it

I love the views, so scenic

Glad you enjoyed it and yes they were.

Not so lucky now, we are getting snow and blowing snow and I need a new part for my winch on the plow. Heading to Canadian Tire in the morning to get new rollers.

Thanks, you too Darrell

Very true! Rabbits can drive you crazy this time of the year if you are setting on the runs/leads/trails... But crazy is a good as place to be as any when the views are like this. Thanks for watching brother.

It was too good of a day. I went up in the morning planning on doing a quick check but because it was so nice I stayed out and missed lunch and supper... But worth every minute of it.

Glad you enjoyed it

Well said! They have a sometimes very unpopular job to do, but bottomline, we need them out there protecting our resources for our and future generations.

thanks

Glad you like it!

It sure is, I'm drawn to the hill/mountain tops. Wonderful places to stop, soak it all in and play our respect for this blessed lifestyle...

Wind cuts, no wind and it don't seem so bad. With bear fat rubbed into your exposed skin I use to be able to handle -32 with ease, but the older I get the more the cold seems to bother me.

Cody I don't have any experience with that engine, I have the 4 stroke 600 ACE in my Tundra. From with I hear about the 600 EFI is that they are 2 stroke, good on gas and oil, and has loads of power. I'm a 4 stroke guy, who just likes to putt putt around in the woods.

@NLGhostWolf I do like the 4stroke but I sure like having the backup of a pull cord if the battery decides to fail, also a little lighter. Thanks for the input!

It is either 6 strand picture cord or 22 gauge brass wire, they are the only legal wire we are allow to use in Newfoundland, approximately 25% weaker wire then what we use to use in the past. This is due to the pine marten recovery program. I wish we could use the old wire, but I understand why we can't and that we have to try and make the best out of what we have.

good to see them out there

I'm not sure what the rest of Canada has to do with regards to helmets but we never had to wear them here until a couple of years ago. Now you have to wear them unless you are snaring, hunting or trapping where you are stopping often to explore sign. Yes I remember fishing the blue hills ponds years and years ago. You could always catch a good feed of trout there...

@NLGhostWolf Awesome Charlie! Thanks for the info. If you get board I got a nice buck in November here in Wisconsin! The Explicit version shows my true un edited excitement but the Clean version is good too. If you have time. It's the only hunting I get to do now. I'm pretty crippled up this last year so I couldn't do much, but at hunting season (deer) there's help around to get me to my stand. I want to rabbit and squirrel snare so bad!! Have a blessed day!

​@@NLGhostWolfYes, I believe it was just a general question to see if you had one because there is a chance you could go over 20klm/hr however like you said you don't need to wear a helmet while hunting/rabbit snaring and under 20klm/hr.

Well Ken, if we never had them here in NL we would have no game animals, everything would be on the endangered list.

@@NLGhostWolf not likely they are the ones causing the loss of game from the stupid regulations. They brought woofs from Canada down and reintroduced them in the Pacific Northwest now we have lost our ungulate population 2 a point of that alot of game is nearly wiped out. Old timers got rid of them 4 a reason.

First off it's not the ones enforcing the rules and regs that introduced the wolves to your states, that decision would have come from the Wildlife Biologists, not the troops on the ground. Plus there are a lot of other factors at work then the wolves. I was stationed in Cold Lake AB where they have the largest known wolf pack recorded, the wildlife there was incredible. The wolves couldn't reduce the numbers quick enough and like many states in the Northwest they too got CWD into the herds of ungulates. Nature will eventually balance itself out.

@@NLGhostWolf the woofs been around for thousands of years they have parasites that cause the diseases. Every place woof dedicated and a ungulate comes in contact gets in there system and kill s them it was wiped out when the old timers killed them.off in the 1920s. We don't have the big herds of game 2 feed all of them. The woof that were here were timber woof not the Arctic wolf they brought down from Canada. Humans are the top predators now can't even feed there families Colorado just made the biggest mistake ever getting woof from Oregon. The enviros want to make it like the 1800s. There's people in every state canyon and land no room 4 any more predators. Grizzly lion humans black bears not enough meat to go around. Carp cops are on a power trip 2 make sure people don't get any game. Going to be a blood bath average person knows what is happening and are sick of there families going hungry when predators are shitting the meat could of fed there families out in the woods. Meat 7 bucks a pound. Twice as many predators as they tell the public

Yes trail pass.

Kwanute is the name of the song, it's our feast song.

Me to Brayden, They have a tough job to do but we get to benefit from them doing it well...

yes but for years we hardy had any around this part, rabbit population low, lynx population low. This was the best sign I seen here in years.
