The bunnies were battered and fried!
The Salmon are either smoked in various brines or grilled on cedar planks(my favorite method)!
Halibut is great ant way you cook it, but I prefer blackened.
The deer is mostly summer sausage, breakfast sausage, german sausage with green chiles, and steaks from back srtaps and tenderloins!
Caribou was good but def not favorite, kinda sweet with a hint of wild game taste. Mostly ground meat for burgers and sausage.

I've had cariboo and enjoyed it. I've been told more than once by native Indians that there is little nutritional value in cariboo meat and that deer,moose and elk were always hunted first.

Yeah the Caribou has very little nutrition, but it was a fun hunt! They move so fast across open ground and tundra with little effort, kind of a pain to get within rifle range. I've got lots of other hunts just didn't have a camera. :-[

I had caribou once and it was terrible.My bro in law shot it on a trip to Newf and immediately afterwards the weather warmed and the outfitter's refrigerated storage broke so by the time he got it back to NS,it was definitely ripe.We tried to eat it but even with excessive rum we had a hard time getting it down.I've heard it's good though.
You would think caribou would have good nutritional value as it was what many northern people relied on for survival.
Speaking of nutrition though,if you found yourself stranded in the woods for the winter with no food source except for rabbits-and could catch as many as you wanted to eat-you'd starve to death before the spring.Strange but true.Anyone know why?Quiz of the day :D

Survivor man talked about rabbit "consumption" dangers.

Some friends bagged a black bear once, we ate it, and we all knew quickly that something was very wrong. There was a bad aftertaste that took over a week to get rid of.My friend finally figured it out - it was a garbage dump bear! To this day I won't eat bear.

Mrs Bean prefers hiking, but my preference is in the canoe, so we try split it up.






We spend as much time in the north as we can.

Cool pics beaner.Why would anyone want to walk when you could paddle?  :)What kind of canoe is that?
Sachs-here I thought I'd seen all the survivorman episodes-I guess not.Rabbits are a good lean meat but that's the problem-not enough fat content.We need fat to survive and rabbits don't provide sufficient amounts to ensure it.
Speaking of Les Stroud,did you see his "off the grid" shows?That was pretty sweet.

I'm trying with the Mrs., but the water makes her a little nervous.
It's a Scott Explorer. We've had it for about 25 years, and it's been a great canoe. 14' and 56 lbs. it's easy to handle.
We're looking at a Scott 12' Kevlar. 40 lbs. will make my job a little easier.
I expect to take a trip with my older son this year. He likes some late season back woods, and that's OK with me.

Same year - different trip (sorry for the wrong bike)









This the ferry crossing the abitibi river

Those aren't a bad size rookie-what species?
Cool pics beaner,my buddy had a KLX300-good bike.
My wife is a little leary in a canoe as well as she can't swim.I was pretty much brought up in one so our versions of "rough water" tend to be a little different.My 16'  65 lb fiberglass is fast,handles well and carries well-it's also tippy.I like it but she prefers the old 18' Chestnut.Surprisingly,it handles and paddles exceptionally well and not at all like a scow-especially given the fact it tips the scales at a little over 120 lbs  :o That's like 3 of your kevlar lighties.I don't really like carrying it  :(

Nice Grouper Rookie! What is a Toman? It looks like it would put up a good fight!

If not for the fins,from that angle(not seeing the head) you could almost mistake the Toman for a pike or Musky

Cool,snakeheads.I saw them a while back on discovery on that show where the Brit goes around the world fishing the big predatory fish.I don't think I'd dangle my toes in the water-or have a leak while standing waist deep. :o
