Hunting, Fishing and Camping

I am an avid outdoorsman that has lived in Alaska for 32 years.  I am a firm believer of what you put into something is what you get.  Hunting and fishing is very enjoyable for me and alot of time is hard work.  I enjoy the challenge whether it is dealing with weather, tides, or equipment failures.  Bringing home a moose or filling the freezer with halibut is always a success and is always a bonus in my book.
