Probably about the same amount of fun as guiding a late sheep season horse hunt. Saddling horses at -20. Trying to pack horses with bare hands and frozen ropes. Standing on a wind swept mountain trying to glass and then harvest something and have to cape and debone in this. Proccessing it 100% in the elements. Riding the first hour each time you get on your horse in a frozen leather seat. Holding ice cold bits in your bare hand to warm it so as to not jam a frozen one in a horses mouth. Spending from day light to dark out side with only the clothes on your back for any additions warmth as for the most part you out of tree line and a fire isnt always an option!
LOL yep poor trappers if only everyone could be as tough!!! I give them a ton of credit for what they do but god there are a couple here that seem to need a big S sewn on their buckskin coats!!
