What does Babler's road look like these days? Is the wind bad today? <P>I'm heading up tonight and wondering if I am even going to be able to drive out tomorrow morning. I know Richard won't plow if the wind is blowing the road closed. <P>Also, should I bring snowcats so that I can get out to the deep water mud flats like 31+ feet?<P>Thanks!<P>

I would plan on some other method of transportation after this storm. I was out on Babblers road on Tuesday and I could get out to all the reefs (at least general vicinity), but there were very few spots that I could get off of the road without getting stuck even with 4 WD. I am sure he will be busy plowing after the storm, but the road was 1 1/2 lanes on Tuesday and I would guess that it gets narrower as the year goes on. If you truly want to be mobile and don't like to shovel I would not go by vehicle alone. (Just my opinion!)

Just talked to Richard and he said that it is drifting nasty and hard pack. He suggested bringing snowmachines if a guy wants to get off road. Trucks are having a tough time.

      Ok, how did we get from crappies and freezing temps to pond slime eaters in south America?  Focus!  🙄

      The locals there shoot ducks but don't hunt them. If they see a bunch on a pond they'll sneak up and water swat them but it's strictly for food not sport. My buddy runs an outfitter so him and I will hunt a few days and scout then I'll help him with a group whose coming mid week. He's from there. Hoping he can come to Canada next year with me. He's never seen or shot a goose

      Awesome kind of trip! I figured there would be a local benefit if you couldn’t bring them back (not saying you can’t).  Having a connection down there is pretty cool!   We donated a good share of meat to the village in Kotzebue, AK instead of shipping it all back.  Pretty pricey and they really appreciated it.  Win/win.

      I don't bring them back, eat a lot then clean them for the village. Some like them plucked and some like the breasts cut out. It's really remote where I go and the locals live off the land. I know they want me to go get some doves for them too. My buddy is a local so we'll probably go get a deer as well for some venison for some of the elders in the community
