I doubt it...this is what happens here...the original question is addressed in the first half dozen posts max, and then things digress.


I couldnt think of anything to add to the other posts you were directed to? Was there something specific?

Very definitely.

Dog sleds are extremely hard to find nowadays and the dogs expensive to feed.

As to whether or not you can get enough pelts to purchase said snowmobile depends upon your expertise as a trapper.

Living on "The Rock" you also have the advantage of being able to supplement your income by doing a little seal hunting in springtime.

I'm not sure but it's not as much as the dreaded Okanagan ice weasel a much more rare and vicious beast.
