Matt and Hunter joined Luc and Quillian checking a trapline that is close to their home. Luckily for us they have two skidoos! That is one of the pricier items we have not replaced since leaving Kugluktuk. The boys had a great trip and were out for two hours and covered around 7km of trapline. Hunter returned with tales of the skidoo tipping over, falling into the snow and peeing in the woods. Definitely a good time, even if they did come home empty handed.
Cavan I stayed back at the cabin with Delphine and her new baby Lilou. We chatted, snacked, crafted and played with the babies. A perfect morning! Once the guys returned, Delphine cooked up a delicious lunch of fish and potato cakes made from the grayling they had caught this summer.

A gorgeous February day in the Yukon:
Stopping for the mandatory cookie snack break:
Big Boy Toys!
Quillian devouring a cookie!
Hunter looking very determined to drive the skidoo by himself!
There is nothing like spending time with good friends to liven up winter!

Ooooh the views in those photos. I think I need to paint a mountain view on the window of my flat. This is the flattest country on the planet!
the outdoors and all that it brings is good for the spirit....if you take young ones out in the wilderness at a young age they will always return to it at some time.
