Snow Story

When it snows, we know....Just how much wildlife there is here at Mile 14. Its one of me and MP's favorite things, to go out after the fresh snow and sleuth out all the fresh tracks of who's around. MP has this wonderful way of thinking it the same animals all the time and that they live with us rather than migrate through.

The coyote has to be the hardiest critter on the Kenai, well other that Dan France that is. They will scratch through 2 Feet of ice to get to a fish skeleton, but this guy was after something alive, well, it used to be.

He calmy walked across the parking lot to the downriver tree line. He stood right there and pounced to the grass, a span of about 4 feet....man I'll bet thats a sight.

 He landed and thats where he got him, just a drop or two of blood tells the story.

 He drug it up the parking lot and I suppose it died here, no hair, no feathers...mmmmm.....maybe a vole, maybe a rabbit or spruce hen....we'll never know, its just a snow story.
