Walking on the mountain, bear scat everywhere, you know they're everywhere but I'm noisy enough they keep out of sight. Old mining trails leading onto old mining shacks and homesteads, some good exploring, and then I come to a meadow that rather intrigues me and I catch my first sight of one:
See it? Look closer...
Making noise, the cubs have fled the picture but mom's not backing down and so that ends a fine day of near discovery...
Need to start carrying my bear banger and spray. On the way out, fresh scat piled in the tire ruts I drove over to get here - the place is infested with them...

I loved the original series, set on Vancouver Island, the other locales didn't appeal to me so much. But season 6 is filmed on the Great Slave Lake, another geography of interest, and features 2 Canadian Women, and so I recommend it to the daughter, who, in turn, recommends it to me. Episode 1 complete and now I'm hooked and waiting for the rest...as always, the game seems to depend less on the survival skills one has and more on the psychology of the participant. We'll see...

Following the Lootbox for Stormy I waited and waited...
Until, finally, he shows up looking for me on a day off, a smaller parcel, not worth an unboxing video:
Open it up to reveal:
Apparently it's a spaceship, assembled from an old matchbox, Century 21 Keychain, plastic ant, acrylic ball, nickel and wire.
Who would have guessed? Anyways, I prefer the scrolls, they can be flattened out and stored or exhibited, these sculptural pieces take up way too much room. Now, of course, I have to make him something in return...that's how it works...

It wouldn't be fair to take all of Stormy's fine artwork and gifts without arranging some sort of reciprocation...
