Caribou has been my favourite since I first had it in the Yukon 15 years ago. Yeah, I wouldn't try and go out without poles, they tend to drive me nuts until I need them, but then I couldn't do it without them. We were definitly in a porcupine hot spot, they were funny and curious at first, then they ransacked camp, two of them duking it out in the tent vestibule over a coffee cup, ate anything plastic and almost came under the sod cloth. Actually, it was funny the whole time.

Great photos & congrats!
Reminds me of the Spatsizi area.

Never tried caribou but Eve(her dad was involved in hunting) tried it & preferred it over moose & especially deer.

The porcupines are a rare sight since they're mostly nocturnal & not too many around. Last one we saw was near Uslika Lake. It looked like a big, round & fat ball moving slowly & stopping every few seconds to look back.A totally harmless to people animal it seems unless provoked.

I notice the trekking poles
Just posted an article -see post #33

And all the best in the knee recovery!

We did fish a bit, but no luck. I've heard it's a greyling spawning area, and have also heard it's a tough lake for fishing.

Thanks for sharing your story. Hunting a Caribou like you did is one of the big items on my goal list. Your photos and success are an inspiration.

Used to live in Cassiar working as a mining surveyor & use to drive down to Dease Lake, Spatsizi area & Telegraph Creek. Saw caribou crossing the roads occasionally, sometimes many in numbers.
