That would be too cool. An Excalibur Whitetail Extravaganza........Well, I talked about this place enough, time to post it. Hopefully one day I can have some of you guys from the forum come out and hunt Whitetails.

Nipawin is about 3 hrs. due East and a little North from where we are, it sits right on the edge of the Northern Boreal Forest. Tobin Lake is right at the dam, world class fishing (Walleye), in fact the world record Walleye through the ice was taken just before Christmas by a minister.

Supper's is always ready.

Land is fairly cheap, as compared to where most of you forum members live, $20,000.00-$30,000.00 Can. for 160 acres.

Yes there is moose on our place, only problem you have to be drawn for them, to close to the city to be a open licence. I'll post a nice set of bull moose antlers I found on our land.

Wow, it looks like a nice place to roam around to get away from it all, but at the same time scouting for deer. You must get really excited just before hunting season starts, I know I would.

Sweeeeeeet!! Lucky guy!! I'm envious!! 
Good luck keeping trout in those ponds if you have any otters around. They can clean a pond out pretty fast. They're a real problem for aquaculture here.
What type of trees make up your forest?? I have no idea, but I'd guess Aspen and Fir.
Nice looking country!!

Steve:
To tell you the truth Steve, I never had time in the late fall to net them guys out. Oh, Well!! $335.00 bucks down the friggin tubes. But at least the loons and cormorants, got a good feed.
Maritimer:
I certainly do get excited, anytime I can leave the city, yep, I get excited.
Red Label:
If I ever get that cabin built, Mike, that'd be a good plan.
Carl from Vermont:
Luckily we don't have Otters, at least where we are, but we do have Beavers. They don't eat fish, but they do make the water murky enough so the trout have a hard time seeing their food. As far as trees Carl, predominately its consists of White and Black Poplar (trembling aspen), birch, and Spruce. My wife, kids and I have planted Scots Pine, Jack Pine, Colorado Blue Spruce, Larch, Maple, White Ash, and Burr Oak, about 1500 in all, some of them are having a hard time though. We get them for free, from Saskatchewan Power, so its not a big deal. Its our Utility Company's way of seqestering carbon sinks to fight air pollution (carbon dioxide).

Been taken care of, Ruger 10/22 with a 25 shot clip, extra long bullets, not one left. Typically I don't do this, butttttttttttttttttttt....... them little beggers are very destructive, a family of them can literally wipe out every tree 75-100 yards from the water edge. They've damed up an area with a chain of sloughs, and completely cleared every tree any where near the water on one of my quarters. Mother nature also helped me out these last few years by throwing consecutive severe droughts, thats what really done'em in. Trees now are starting to grow back, should be good for a few years anyway. Also trapping is not like it use to be, people just don't wear furs any more.
Incidentally most of the beavers I shot were taken in the very early spring, just when the ice was melting and receding. I then gave them to the only trapper I know up there.
