It was good to get out on the cross-country skis yesterday with my son. We found some new furry friends! Amazing how fearless they were this time of year.

Fantastic pics, Guy. Looks like you and your son had a great time in some beautiful country.

Good show, Guy. Glad you are getting out with your son for these backcountry adventures. Amazing how tame the critters are at this time of year. I was within 25 yards of an entire elk herd here last week while riding my mountain bike. Didn't realize I was in the middle of them until I smelled them, then stopped, looked around, and there was at least 10 or 12 elk, one nice 6x6 just staring at me wondering what I was about.

During winter, one of my favorite things to do on either my x-country skis or snowshoes, is to grab either a .22LR rifle or pistol and go after winter snowshoe hares here. A great day outside in the snow and cold, and a great bunny stew when you get home....my kind of fun!

Thanks for sharing the adventure.
