Years ago those small clear lynx were the top lot at the auction. Early 80's $1795 for top lot. lynx kittens that brought $1200 each. Wonder if we will ever see those days again? Sure we will...right after our lynx crash here again..... like they did when the prices got that high last time..lol

Well, I'll be leaving for awhile. The MiFi's leaving with my child. It was nice talking with you again and stiring the pot. If you noticed, I moved. Don't have too big of a party! LOL

They are indeed an awesome looking animal. Better sold to the taxi market than the auction. The problem is there is nothing to match them with to make a decent lot. Even if you took several blue lynx together they will vary in colour, size and quality. Some very "pretty" wild cross fox and silvers are in the same boat.

This weather out here in western AK SUCKS!!!!!! I couldn't agree more I did 70 miles yesterday in pouring rain !! The only thing good about it is the beaver and otter are both moving well beaver crawling out to find fresh feed and otters just plain running all over. The bad part is I can hardly get to my sets and after the rain last night & today I am washed out till it cools down
We get out of life only as much as we really want and work hard enough to achieve

It was raining out on the line today. Overflow had the snow machine sounding like an outboard motor. Not what I like at all. Snow is almost nothing and what critter trails we did see, weren't running our trails. Thank god it looks like it is going to get cold here in a day or two. Will probably have to go through and fix all the foot hold sets after all the wet snow freezes hard. Uggg.

otterman we did about 110-120 in the pouring rain yesterday also it SUCKED. We didn't even bother to reset most of our footholds. pointless with pouring rain and forecast for temps to drop again.
I survived the Tman crash of '06

Bushman that is alot of money for a lynx! The trapper that brought it in showed me a twin kitten that was with it and it was a normal color Lynx. I believe team Kusko got two of them one was a adult I belive..must of made a deal with the devil to catch two
