    I just picked up a 2010 Tundra Sport revXU 550F. I have been watching your videos for a few years and have been saving up. The sled is amazing, it truly is a mechanical snowshoe. Also I picked up the Snowmobile dolly that you recommended. Thanks for your videos Charlie 👍 keep it up. That new camera you have is crystal clear, feels like I’m there. Andrew from Ontario.

    That Camera is steady and crystal clear. Your sled doesn't sound right when your heading down the trail. almost sounds like somethings rattling, or rubbing your track maybe. I check the video you made on the 26th and its way quieter, so it must be your camera position on the front of the sled, its picking up all the Engine and track noise I guess. Not much snow here in Pembroke either Charlie. Love that Saw. Thanks for the Vid, a great way to kill 40 min's while I wait for the leaf game, ,haha. Pen works great. Thumbs up, Cheers.

      Haven't had the tied break yet but I have to be honest, it was/is a concern for me because I was wondering if it would be strong enough. Twine is an excellent option and perhaps I'll carry some in my pocket in case I get breakage of the ties. I was wondering how the pen would hold up if you have a coyote come by a grab your rabbit.

    The camera works just great. I'm a bit weird, though, in that I get motion sickness with the movement of the camera.

I have about 3 Silky saws in 3 different sizes: pocket size, medium and one walloping large one. They're all excellent tools and well worth every penny, in my humble opinion. Great vid! 👍🏻

I never cleared the Gronny this winter on the Tundra, not enough snow. I hope you get the warmer temps you like to see. As for us here on the Island, Well I hope we get to see some winter at least. Been raining for the last two days and another possible two days of rain in the forecast. Normally we have 2.5 meters of snow by now and thus far we have had just 85 cm. One meter equals 39 inches... We are way low on snow this winter.

    As far as which video view I like best, I would say the one on your head, because you can look in that direction if something interesting is near. But your sled just doesn't want to move the camera for us. LOL. That snare pen sure does go up fast. Like 2 seconds and done. I don't know if less snow is easier on the critters or not. Will less snow make it easier to thrive? Less snow may make it easier for wolves to get to the moose as they can run faster and longer without the deep snow that moose have the leg length that allows them to maneuver, What do you think? Maybe it wouldn't hurt to grab a handful of those little flags that cable companies stick it the ground to mark the cable, and stick them where you are finding the rocks so you are for warned of their location.

    • @NLGhostWolf
      @NLGhostWolf  3 года назад +1

      Well less snow is definitely easier on some critter like the moose and caribou for their movements in search of food supplies. Now the rabbits/hares use the snow for camouflage, defence as they are able to run on top of deep snow while their predators sink in pursuit and they use the increased snow depths to reach new tender tips of young trees and shrubs. Also some bears then to den up under downed trees and use the deep snow as insulation from the cold weather. Cubs are born in late Jan to early Feb and are less than a pound at birth, so lack of good insulation layer could be very hard on the new born cubs that could be exposed to more of the elements due to the lack of snow. Bottom line is, some animals will be much better off and others will be worst off. Nature always seem to fine a balance some how.
