Life doesn't get any better than that. God's beautiful planet to enjoy, family to hunt with, and the good lords blessings of a successful hunt. Life is good!! 😊
Oh man couldn’t say it better myself. Amen to that, can’t live out here and not see gods hands in everything. We are truly blessed up here, god bless you and yours, thanks 🙏
Thanks for taking us along. Love that you thank the Lord in all things
No problem it’s my pleasure. Gotta give thanks in everything good and bad. I am truly blessed to have god put me where I am. Have a great night and god bless you and yours
This is what makes me proud to be an Alaskan. The strength of the people, the traditions and the harmony with nature. This land and it’s people are blessed. Congrats on a successful harvest!
Definitely👍. We will keep our traditions and culture alive and pass it on. I love that we’re able to share it on here for everybody to see. We are truly blessed. Thanks for watching and for the awesome comment🙏
Wus
Thank you Lord!!
Amen to that. God bless and thanks for watching
No antibiotics in that meat. I worked at a feed lot in my youth. Had a full size fridge full of drugs for those Herefords. 700 head. Lost two or three a week to lot rot. Good to see experienced hunters work for it, staying calm. Local knowledge.
Great job on the hunt you guys. Your living the way it should be. Being a hunter gatherer is the real life, a satisfying life a life to live. You guys are amazing. I love your narrating and the way your enjoying yourself. You make real and your choice of music is fantastic. It matches your lifestyle. Keep up the videos with you guys on the hunt and being outdoors. You guys are truly amazing a life worth living. 😊
Thanks. We really try to show the truth in our hunting with no fake stuff. Man I’m glad you enjoyed the video and music. We’ll definitely be putting up more. God bless
Great video with your uncle. Family and hunting = a lot of fond memories. Really enjoyed the ride a long. Thanks
Yeah a hunt to remember. We don’t usually shoot a moose with a 12’ pack out.lol. Thanks for watching and commenting
I ❤the Native culture. Great Hunt with Friends. Bringing home meat for the family and the Elders. I’m a white man from southern Manitoba. But I used to be a Logger up in High Level Ab. I met a native Hunter Les House who provided for his community. He fried up some moose medallions for me one night. Best wild meat I’ve ever had. I miss those times Your living the good life my Friend. You have earned my Subscription Keep these videos coming
Oh yeah hunting with friends making memories and feeding people all works out to an awesome time for sure. I bet Les had a boatload of hunting stories. Moose meat is my favorite meat on earth! Thanks for the subscription I’ll have another video up on Saturday of fishing for dog salmon then another moose hunt and bear hunt in the weeks to follow. God bless. Oh yeah I’ve got a trapping series from last winter that you might enjoy if you like trapping, also a few caribou hunts and another successful moose hunt from 2022
What a great spot to harvest that Moose with the older gentleman. He was dead on the money with his food comment. Eat wild and live longer ! Thanks for sharing the adventure.
Oh yeah couldn’t have asked for a better spot. Yeah he definitely had it figured out. Thank you for watching and commenting. God Bless
Thanks for sharing what you and your ancestors have been doing for thousands of years
Oh yeah is a pleasure to show the world how we live. Thanks for watching and commenting. Have a good one
Mind blowing, the hunt and the Land. Take care, enjoy!
Oh man we are truest blessed. Thanks for watching 👋
Congratulations! Meat in the freezer for your family. I love watching these videos and reliving my days of living on the Yukon Delta. Moose meat is the best.
Thanks! It’s a huge relief to get meat in the freezer for sure. Where did you live on the Yukon delta? And yes moose meat it the best meat. Have a good one and god bless
Looks like fun! Praise Jesus!
great hunt congratulations , God Bless what an easy pack out , awesome
Thanks. Oh yeah the 2nd easiest pack out I’ve ever had. Once we got the moose into the boat with only one leg cut off. But taking it back out to butcher it was hard to do. So yeah this was the easiest pack out ever. God bless and thanks for watching
As I have said before, Wow, Wow, Wow. Great work, great hunt, great video.
Thank you Norm.🫡. Glad you enjoyed, it was an awesome hunt. Thanks for writing and god bless
Thanks so much for sharing your hunt. I would love to see the smoking and processing too if that is possible. Have a great winter my brother and stay safe and warm.
Oh yeah I’m glad you enjoyed. I do have some processing videos that need to be put together. But I’ve got a couple more hunts and a fishing trip that I am editing together right now. Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoy the videos to come👍
Well done lads excellent film and meat for the winter
Thank you sir. We had a great time out there and can’t wait for the next one. God Bless and thanks for watching
It's refreshing to see.True hunters who know the land,and how to survive on it.The best food does not come from a processing plant or store.It's nice to see the whole animal used.Respect for the animal. Thank you for sharing.
Yeah I don’t try to sugar coat anything and never exaggerate what we’re doing. It is very dangerous and we are far from everything, but this is how we were raised and the life we live. We attempt to use everything we can off of that moose. It really goes a long way. Thanks for watching and God Bless
When I was in RI, I did a little Texas BBQ on a chunk of Moose that came out of Maine. Very tasty. Not sure what part of the critter it was but it smoked up well & had a boat load of flavor. Funny thing though. Almost everyone else from RI didn't touch it. Boy, did they miss out. Great vid Bud. Thanx for posting.
Awesome! Yeah smokers make all meat even better so starting off with moose it’s almost always goin g to be great. To bad for them but more for you. Thanks for watching👋
Man I know there's a part two coming. Good hunt blessed to have it right there on shore💯💯💯💯👍🏾
Thanks for watching👍. I wish I had gotten more footage of the meat processing but I do have some to share in a couple weeks. Yeah couldn’t have asked for an earlier pack out. Truly blessed indeed. Have a good one and I’ll have a trapping prep video out this coming Saturday 👋
Hello from Arizona. Congrats on the moose. Recently found your channel. I’m currently binging your videos. Glad I found it.
Hi! Welcome to the channel. Yeah we have a few videos, lol. This was a great moose hunt. We also have the 2022 moose hunt up that is also awesome. We try to put out a new video every Saturday and a livestream to follow, barring any emergencies we’ll be there this Saturday. Take care👍
Nice !
Thank you sir🫡 much appreciated
Blessed family 😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks, we really are👍
For a future video series idea, could you explain the pelt selling/buying process. And maybe take us with you when you go to the fur buyer. And how you treat the fur once you get back home.
Yeah, it’s kinda hard to film the actual selling part, it’s quite private when it comes to smaller fur buyers buying for a market that they create for themselves. I think they would be worried that other trappers would demand prices they see me or others like me that fill specific needs for a decent price. Especially when the market price for some of the furs are so low. I’ve never sold fur to an auction before maybe I can film that and learn along with y’all on here. But if I get the ok from my fur buyers to film I definitely will jump at the opportunity. Thanks for writing and thanks for the input it’s much appreciated
Congrats.
Thanks. We sure had a lot of fun and blessed with a great moose
That’s a good life right there!! Thank you for sharing your experience with us!! God Bless you all
Amen to that. We are truly blessed to be in Gods creation. Thanks for watching and God Bless
Beautiful powerful 😊
Much appreciated. Takes a lot of work but the videos are worth it👋
Great job bro thanks for sharing this video with us

@@enigmaticgwichin1630 Right-on bro ...
That’s fantastic. Congratulations guys. Certainly looked like a great trip. 👍👍
Thanks. It was an awesome hunt. With a very blessed pack out of 10 feet haha, thanks for watching and bod bless.
Awesome hunt brother!!!! Congrats on the moose!!! Be blessed
Thank you sir! It was an awesome hunt. Thanks for watching and writing👍
Awesome hunt! That pack out was tough, but you got those 10 feet behind you now! 😂
Thanks! Haha once we rolled the moose into the boat, but this was easier because when we rolled it in we had to winch it out to butcher it and that was harder than the 10 foot pack any day. I hope all is well with you, take care👋
@@enigmaticgwichin1630 ... That'll teach ya. Next time you might want to butcher it on the way home in the boat. 😆
what a challenging trip! thanks for sharing what it's like to hunt moose, the before and after.
Yeah no problem, thanks for watching and have a great day
long time no look at Rickey. Long boat ride to Caro and back. I did recognize you right away.. Good Dinjek Your old pilot from Wright Air. Bill Miller
Hi Bill👋. Yeah it was an awesome hunt. So cool, I’m pretty sure I saw you at the airstrip the other day. Good to see you. Thanks for writing, god bless👍
Congratulations I've been watching your series jelous of you
Thanks for watching Robert👍. As long as the good lord sees fit I’ll be doing this for a good long while. Take care and thanks for commenting
Very well done video, I loved it, traditional hunting with no high tech gadgets. Keep up the good work!
Glad you enjoyed. It was an awesome hunt with a blessed moose for sure. I have last years moose hunt up here on KZhead from 2022 moose hunt. Have a good one.
Congrats on a successful harvest! Looked like perfect weather for hunting.
Thanks! Yeah it was nice. The first two days were windy so our moose calls were not reaching as far as it would without wind, but anything is better then rain mixed with snow. After we shot the moose it got downright awesome weather. Thanks for watching👍
Enjoyed the video very much! I just returned from my own meat making hunt to Newfoundland, where my bro-in-law got a nice bull, and I got a good sized cow. Good stuff!
Awesome. I really want to visit Canada someday. Congrats on the game. Thanks for writing and have a good one.
Great hunt and thankyou for taking us along ! All the best to you and your family
Thank you Alan. God bless you and yours as well. Have a good one
Really enjoyed the hunt. Some years it does not come as easy as others. Lol. Blessings to you and you family.
Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed, yeah this was prolly the easiest pack out I’ve ever had. And yeah it can be much harder than this. Thanks and god bless you and yours as well👍
A dream hunt! Thanks for taking us along 😊
Oh for sure a dream hunt👍. Glad you enjoyed, have a great day and god bless
Great video

I 'pinched my nose' and gave a cow call here in the village I live in Thailand here and the village dogs went CrAzY .. Loved the video Bro' .. keep em' coming ... well done!
Haha that’s awesome Mike! If I did that outside my house here in Alaska the neighbors dog team would go crazy then my dog team would go nuts as well. Thanks for watching👍. I have last years moose hunt and a few caribou hunts from this year and last year. Have a good one and thanks for trying out the call
@@enigmaticgwichin1630 Yeah ... I was born & raised in northern Sask. Spent 20+ year hunting & fishing in Northern B.C. Retired here in Thailand here but sure miss the hunting. Your hunting video's bring back so many good memories. God bless.
Nice job guys it looks good 👍👍

Hi Ken. Welcome to the channel. I hope you enjoy the content, we have a couple years of videos on the channel. Thanks for watching and take care👋
Hello Gary and Uncle Rick!
Hi Ed! I think you were on the comments not the live chat. KZhead has two pages when premiering for chat and comments. Don’t know why they complicate it. Thanks for watching. Man it was a great hunt👍
@@enigmaticgwichin1630 I couldn’t find the live chat to save my life! But now that it’s over I see where they hid it…
Thanks for the ride along.
Glad you enjoyed it. God Bless
Amazing hunt! Great job and God bless!
Thanks my friend! It was a lot of fun and truly blessed having a 10’ pack out to the boat! Lol. Thanks and god bless you and yours as well. I hope to catch y’all’s live tomorrow👍
Thanks! Loved watching! Nothing fancy.... just hunting hard and taking what's given to you! Been there....done that... enjoy that great meat!
Thanks for watching and writing Steven. We try to show the real side of life out here.👍
I just moose hunted in Newfoundland and Alaska is next on my list!
Very cool! We sure do love it up here
Great video fellas!!! What a shot, what a pair you two are, Uncle Rick is a legend.... whats the story of that plane in the bush??? Cheers from Armstrong, British Columbia
Thanks! It was an awesome hunt for sure. The plane went down in 1998 after delivering lumber and building supplies here to Venetie. I actually watched if take off from Venetie with one engine spewing smoke and a short time later flying along the river until it went down. Nobody was injured. But it was definitely one memory that was burned into me. Thanks for watching my Canadian friend, take care
I enjoyed the hunt thevtrip with u en uncle .good times living right .wouldnt have it any other way .thats living of the fat of the land .be safe .can taste that heart .liver tongue .back straps frieing with onions hooey !!
Thanks for watching Ted👍. Yeah it was a great hunt and an amazing moose. I think I’ll have to pull out a bag of fry tonight. Thanks for watching and writing have a good one
Great hunt my Friend. That young bull is going to be some very good eating. Best wishes to you folks.
Thank you sir🫡. Yeah it was a great bull. Full of fat and not rutted up. Much appreciated and I hope your winter goes well👍
I so enjoy watching your videos so much more than the "PRO" in it for money and fame hunting vids. God bless you.
Thank you so much! That means a lot, I’m in this to pass on my peoples culture and traditions. God bless you and yours as well.🫡
Very good Video! Enjoyed watching go thru your way of hunting moose👍 Very effective: Moose came into your camp: 80’yard shot, Moose on the Ground. Your boat works : very good on the river. 75 pushes it good! Always smoke shot moose or deer for a couple of days? Everyone will eat well👍 Thanks for the video. B Deacon Manitoba Canada 🇨🇦
Thanks for watching! Yeah 80 yards that 30-06 in the neck the second one he was dead before he hit the ground. I’ve been driving this setup for 6 summers, does really well. Almost always unless it’s in the middle of the winter. We ate ground moose for dinner earlier today, it was awesome! Happy Holidays👋
Today on the lunch time CBC radio show. Robert Alexie was telling old time story about Johnny Semple dog team days. Something about trapping at Black Stone and his tent burning down. I missed most of it somebody phoned about bear
Wow that’s awesome. Wonder if that CBC show is broadcast online? Haha any story about burned tents was prolly horrible at the time but looking back they gotta laugh about it
30-06 putting in some work! Everyone seems to believe that magnums are required for everything bigger than a southern whitetail deer, good to see the old war horse doing work.
What beautiful country. Makes me want to move, build a cabin and live life. Good work taking a moose. Nature provides all we need.
Oh man more than a few people in the last 150 of years have left everything behind and made their ways up into our mountains. Really can almost escape re add t but tyť
Alllll rightt!!! Here we go!
This would be a channel I’d feature Josh.
@@northerngirlhobbies he's a awesome guy! They were just down and visited with us a few times. Great great people!
@@southernrootsalaskanbranches7 that’s totally cool!
Great video of your hunt! Enjoyed every minute of it. Been to Alaska once hunting caribou in Sept 2001. Got home just before 9/11 of that year.
Thank you sir🫡. Glad you enjoyed. How was your hunt? Glad you got out before the crazy. I was 13 when that went down. Been a minute since then. Have a good one and thanks for watching
Long wonderful hard hunt and you were blessed with your reward . Cheers
It was an awesome one with a very memorable pack out. lol, prolly the single easiest pack out I’ve ever had. Thanks for watching
I love your hunting videos as much as your trapping videos! Keep em coming!
Thank you sir! It’s always great out in the woods. Have a good one
Lots of editing. Great video! Sharing out. Congrats again on a great harvest.
Thanks a bunch! We had the video finished and uploaded yesterday but when we went to preview it. Audio all over the place was missing and a bunch of the video edits all of a sudden had dark clips in it. It took me a couple hours to go back and add back in the music. It didn’t come out as good as the first edit. But I’m glad you enjoyed, you’ve got a great channel, thanks for watching👍
@@enigmaticgwichin1630 I have my recent edited amazing fishing video to upload and similar to you a whole album of go pro is missing. Not a good scenario but I’m working on recovering that footage to release it. See what I can do. Keep doing the things.
@@northerngirlhobbies thanks! I’ve only ever had one mini SD card on my GoPro get corrupted and I lost one entire trap line check. Not sure what happened but it hasn’t happened since. I think yesterdays problem was with my wife’s iPad mini. I’ve been editing on it for almost 2 years. Hundreds of gigs of video dropped on edited and deleted has prolly started to slow it down. Gotta use a better setup to edit on some of the bigger videos to come. Will do
I really enjoyed the down to earth style, of the Hunt. Just getting it done and bringing home meat.
Thanks. We sure love our country up here. But yeah get the meat and head home👍. Have a good one and thanks for writing
just stumbled across your channel. Very enjoyable and nicely shot. thanks
Thank you sir. It’s my pleasure to share it with y’all. God Bless

Amen to that. Haha I should rename the video. Thanks for watching👍

Cool. I’ve got a buddy that traps in Maine. Very cool countryside from what I’ve seen in his videos. Thanks for watching

I can't believe watching all the clip, you really did amazing filming thx. Does your uncle wants another nephew? 😂😂😂😂.
Thanks! I really tried to get as much footage as possible and put it together from there. Oh man our families can always grow. Thanks for watching. Have a good one
I missed the live!! Loved the video! God's blessings cousin!
Ah man. Yeah I had hoped to have the video go up on Saturday at 4pm. But 20 minutes before I was checking out the video on KZhead and it was missing a bunch of audio so I couldn’t let it out. But I had enough time to re-edit the video and get it up today. I really want to put out a video every Saturday at 4 so I’ll put up the next video a day before just in case the next one does the same. Thanks for watching bro. Have a good one
Great shots
Thanks! More than 2.5 hours of footage cut down to 37 minutes. Have a good one
Excellent !
Thank you sir🫡. Much more trapping and hunting to come👍
Right on ! Did you guys get your 2nd moose ?@@enigmaticgwichin1630
@@toddak47 thanks. No second moose but we were very happy with the one and our backs were also happy. Lol
I would love to be there
Oh man we sure love it up here. It has its challenges like no water and sewer access in the village. But the freedom here is something I can’t live without. Thanks for watching
Awesome adventure! New sub.
The sub is much appreciated! Hope you enjoy all of our different adventures as well👍 take care
HEY !.. I just found your content.. Love the fact you did a VERY clean job with taking care of the meat and LOVE that you picked up all your trash.. You guys should be proud of your harvest and care of the land... Good luck in the future - You gained a subscriber !
Thanks a bunch! Welcome to the channel, I’m glad you enjoyed our harvest. Yeah gotta respect the animal and the land for sure.
