Vern, you're more n welcome to jump in a freighter this next moose season. Plenty of young freighter canoe folks to do the cutting/packing/loading.

Our mutual friend, Mike N. got to see this bull in person, as he passed by enroute back to matanuska glacier. I built that freighter canoe. This big boy took a full magazine of .300 win mag 180 grain partition. Still stayed upright. He had to reload his rifle with another 3. Gawd I'm glad that brute didn't end up in that swift, cold water:
