Four days ago down on the Inklin Trail Bryan came across 6 or 7 Mountain Goat tracks. They came from the North and traveled the trail east for awhile and then headed South. This is probably the group we see from our cabin in the summer north east of us. They are heading to their wintering grounds, the mountains where the winds blow strong enough to move the snow and keep the feed within reach.
Two days ago down on the Inklin Trail Bryan observed three Wolf tracks heading up the trail from the Inklin and they came to our high mountain lake. Bryan was down the Inklin trail for about 3 hours and upon his return he came across fresh Moose tracks, with the three wolf tracks following the moose on the trail. The Wolves must have flushed out a Moose here above the Lodge and were slowing pushing it down to the River. None of them where running. Once down on the River other pack members would probably join the push.
Today Bryan has gone by skidoo up the Lakeview trail which he is opening for the first time. We had 4 sets out west of here and now that we can't boat he has to get to them that way. One set is going to be a 1/2 mile walk along the shore from the nearest skidoo spot. This morning we spent some time getting a fire starter kit ready, for his jacket. A small container of Diesel, beard moss, fire lighter. It is hard to not go out on the 4 day old ice because of the thickness of the bush along the shore.

Hows the SWT holding together Bryan? Mine has given me no problems yet, but its time for an oil change again, and to change the gearcase oil.
