February 13-15th, 2006....Aaron
and I finally went to the cabin, after leaving it alone in the
winter for the last three months. The roads were pretty good all
the way there, and the temps were surprisingly warm, in the 30s.
We were blessed to see loads of caribou on the way north. We've
never seen so many bou, at least a thousand we figure. They are
incredibly creatures plowing through snow that is thigh deep for
me. Their trails are testament to their durability. A perfect
trail through three feet of snow all the way to the dirt. I
suppose that is what happens when 200 hundred caribou follow each
other single file. It appeared they may have been wintering in the
area as we found a lot of old tracks, and they didn't seem to be
moving anywhere in a hurry!
