This area was hazardous because you could barely stand up on the ramp without skates...

I can't imagine eating that....I use cheese cloth to wrap chunks of meat then put them in new burlap sacs ....they are tough, can be handled often and breath!

Good to see that someone is still loading chunks of moose and fish etc.. into BBZ. - and that she's survived the decade since I last flew her!

I took a nice pic of that AirDale Beaver at a floatplane fly-in at Anjigami Lake in 2008. It was magic hour for picture taking when the sun peeked out from the clouds a few minutes before sunset.
