Out on the Ice

My housemate has had her best friend and son up from Texas. Today we took them out to check the traps, nothing was caught but for Preston (who is autistic) it marked the highlight to his trip.

I drove one Honda and Preston clung on sittting behind me as we went through the forests, up and down hills and finally charging back on Iliamna itself. When we came back - I got a bit of frostbite on the tip of my nose.

Just to make things even more interesting is that the disticts tech specialist is a former coworker of mine from the Grand Lodge in Forest Grove. He's been here for the last week upgrading software and finishing leftovers.
