Moccasins?
Diligence:
Some of those northern kids are really talented. You should check out the King Trapper Contests....really, really high quality calling. Just by mouth alone...not to mention all the other trapper skills.
It's been one of those nights LOL...just before reading this, I was showing my son how to call a Moose, Grandma was calling one too...and my wife even tried..good family fun.

Cool. and I was playing with my Alan Sentell Turkey trumpet call that came while I was gone, and was brought up to date this was the last weekend of turkey season ,here.
Diligence:
Those ptarmigan are really good eating...nice white meat, but I swear that they can dodge bullets....the caribou were probably "woodland" caribou and they are really stubborn animals. If they come to a small bay on a lake, instead of walking around it, they will just swim right straight across.
Here's a random fact for you. The old timers use to kill moose with an axe (whack on the head) by paddling their canoes up beside the moose while it was swimming and moose float really well, when dead. However, watch out for the caribou in the water as they can get their front forelegs out of the water and flip your canoe.
Man, all this talk of the north really has me missing home....
..hope you get out for a turkey or two?
