Those Wolverines over there I want to here about those bastards? As they are related to the musteloid breed that fucks any wild life in this country that our government doesn't.
Welcome enjoy the forum.
Ok you asked for it, I'll just plagerize my own moose story and post it in the hunting section,
have a buddy that got a wolverine this winter, chased it on a snowmachine for 30 miles across the tundra at speeds reaching 70 mph, hit it and ran over it 8 times with a 1000 lb snowmachine then shot it with a 500 S&W revolver emptying all 9 rounds in semi auto fire at point blank range then finished it off with winter tire chains ... Local newspaper ran a story about the "Rasputin" wolverine !
but seriously, he caught it in a 330 conibear killer trap, was solid frozen when he came to the set, it didn't put up much of a fight, they ain't as tough as most folks make them out to be !

Welcome ,no good lurking in the shadows .

Welcome Swamplord,
My wife and I lived near Hyder for most of 2006, I was lucky to see Wolverine way up one of the glaciers that flow off the Cambrian Ice Field in BC. Even from 500' above, it looked like an animal not to be messed with. It ran straight down a bluff system with the speed and agility of a Tahr, very impressive.
Appreciate all the warm welcomes !
Hoping to visit NZ next year, my little brother married a Canadian chick and moved to Canada 'bout 6 years ago and now is fixin to move over to Christchurch this summer, gonna let him get settled in then go check out that big rock I've been dreaming about going to the last 20 years

Alyeska Skiing area near Anchorage is OK but nothing like ya got there .
I worked in the construction of the new Heli Ski resort in Thompson Pass near Valdez Alaska "Tsaina Lodge" and got to see what "Heli Skiing" is all about.... NZ has world class skiing opportunities including Helicopter drop off skiing that is phenomenal !
A bunch here do the snowmachine up the back of the mt and ski down the steep side , gotta do something in the winter or go mad from cabin fever
Mt Olympus is the Rock I want to conquer, The Gods command it !
You going to mt Olympus (canterbury nz ) ? Best club ski field ever !
It's just a gnarly version of your magpie trap ;)Quote:
