When I was younger I would spend upwards to two months alone in the bush on
The trap line .
I thought nothing of taking off at night on s hunting trip downriver , or bushwhacked trails alone for days .
This was before cell phones , and I rarely told anyone where I was going or when I was going to return .
I kept prepared , and knew how to reduce risks and take care of stuff when it
“ hit the fan”
However Since I got married and had children, I now carry a cell phone , and let my wife know when and where I am going , and I always let her know when I get off the river at night of when I get to my destination - fir her peace of mind .
She worries about me , and I’m okay with that .
I still prefer to hunt big game alone however ,
