My coming trip to the frozen North

Doesn't look good for camping out on my lake.

-20C? Thats bloody sub-tropical. :D

Seriously though, enjoy your trip! Any bears there?

SD

Yeah. Found scat from what looked like a family set (sow and 2
cubs) last august. Lots of moose....looked like a convention.
Buncha grouse too....look like quail on serious steroids.

Well, watch out for the bears. You should always attach small bells to your clothes and carry pepper spray to scare them off.

You should also learn how to identify the various types of bear droppings.

Young bears leave fist size pellets that contain undigested leaves etc.


Where as the droppings from older bears smell of pepper, and have small bells in them.

:D


Ah, an oldie but goodie.

SD

hmm you are going to be a little way from me, i am in thunder bay. Anyways, adult bear droppings always taste like ****. remember that it could save your life one day :p

ummmmmm....sure G. Sure thing {moves slowly to the close
button} yeah, don't worry, I'll be careful {beginning to think of
the prospects that were passed up in Bali} Thunder Bay huh

{Frantically pulls out map to find that Thunder Bay is roughly
17000 miles from englehart}

No Problemo:D

If you just went 1 or 2 cities down from North Bay you'd find the temperature more like -3 or -4.

SD I couldnt let ur bear joke go unappreciated :D

Thanks BB. :D
