Well I'm back from another season up north. Was only able to work a half season this year because of school, but was still able to do three hunts. Took 3 rams, one goat, one caribou, and a wolf. Pretty successful season all-in-all, nice hunters and good weather. Can't ask for too much more!

I know of them, but don't know them personally. I do know one of their guides though. I think they run a pretty good show down there.

Enjoy this time. The adage, "youth is wasted on the young" is true. Nice to see a young fellow that does things instead of talks about it.
Best of luck, I'm certain you'll do well with whatever you choose.

Hard to believe you've been guiding for how many yrs???

I think you'll be looking younger than 35 when you're 50(unless you keep guiding for sheep:wink:). My sister-in-law just recently got I.D.'d when out for dinner with her two boyz. She's 49. Top that!:-D

Wish I had done the same as you when I was your age.

Hello Mike

Absolutely love the shot with the caribou rack on your pack frame.....I think I might have to make that my new desktop pic on my computer......

Are you Keith's son by chance? I ask as I live in Nelson as well.

Great shots, it sure brings back good memories from when I was young and climbed for sheep and goats. Do as much as you can until you can't anymore as you will never regret it.

Yaa it's a beautiful place alright. I think he'll still be allowed to hunt for 10 years after the park has been established, so he should get a few more goats out of it :razz:
