Wyo: if your comment was directed at me sir I have nothing to be petty over. I travel throughout NA wherever and whenever I wish including Alaska as much as I wish. For many years I spent each fall west of the Alaska Range on my own. I choose to live in Pa. in a nice subdivision but migrate to what few would call a cabin in north central Pa. on property I own for the fall and winter...no electric other than a gas generator I seldom use, no running water other than a spring house and wood heat. I am currently at my home in the subdivision for the holidays with my children.

School administration? You got a lot to answer for Jackass, thanks for the idiocracy.

well I have lived in the country in northern Minnesota all my life,don`t care for town much . I have did bull work all my live and my body shows it now .work outside all my life as a lineman climbing electric poles we had no bucket trucks at first I learned the hard way and enjoyed working outside all my life even at 30 below zero. now as far as The Last Alaskan show I really enjoy watching this show and at my age of 65 i wished i would have lived,worked and done what these great people on this show have done over the years. so until you have walked in their shoes you have no ideal how ruff and tuff these people have been thru their lives ,i understand raising a family for food,shoes or whatever its not easy when you worked and live outside a community. remember this these people use guns as a tool to survive not to show off to a friend or go shoot for fun, big deal they go to town for a few months to get some money by working to survive out in wild country ,they are still doing things the best they can in the wild country there home of homes .I salute their way of life ! its not a easy life in weather conditions like a desk job is or was with a retired packaged !

My father bought us boys a 22mag/20ga Savage to share. We were a family of nine. The gun got a lot of use. We hunted year round on a dairy farm.

Every one I had ...the barrels never lined up ...if I shot the .22 thru the sites from a rest ...then the center of the ..birdshot should pattern around the .22 bullet hole...never ...a foot lower it would hit ...hell on wing shooting...

I had not known about this series. Just found it on Amazon. Pretty sure this will be a binge watch.
Please don't feed the trolls!

Bob was a very sincere and earnest guy. He was a real old breed trapper with a great skill set just not good at landing airplanes. Now that is quite an understatement

Are they making any new episodes? It was one of the only shows where there wasn't much (if any) manufactured reality tv drama.
