    F&*kin Pack Rats!

    I used a live trap with peanut butter, Pack rats are smart. Best was to lock the trap open for a night or two until they get used to going in, then set the trap. Works for me every time for the last 30 years. Then dispose as needed.

    Alaskan geodesic and kodiak canvas flex-bow

    I have been using a 10' x14' Kodiak in the interior of Alaska for the last 3 years, 75 nights or so. Compared to our old wall tent the Kodiak is a dream, fast set up, sturdy, and very warm with the added Kni-Co Alaskan stove. We hunt with a river boat so weight is not an issue.
