    Very cool, love his drive to be in the woods! If I can be doing half of what he’s doing at his age I’d be really happy.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Nice use of a dray and snowmobile. I liked the part about holding off a wolf with his chainsaw until he could get to his rifle. Still cutting cords a day after heart surgery, I hope the same for campinspecter!

    He says if he dies in the woods God knows he'll die happy. I can relate to that.

    My kind of a guy, he obviously loves his work, and probably always has. That alone makes the job fun, this is how i've tried to be all my life. Keep a good positive attitude, and do the job like you'r doing it for your grandmother. If you do it like that, you don't have to look for a job, the job will always find you.
