This is a true story that happened to Ervin Stack in the 1970s near Timmins. Stack dedicated his free time to hunting, fishing, and trapping.

Good read for sure thanks.

I guess in Trudeau's modern world this will not happen; in our woke world there is no need to have a handgun in the remote woods as a trapper, prospector etc.

A number of years ago I had a pack of wolves follow me to my truck after dark while moose hunting near Cochrane. I don't care how big and tough you are. When you hear the wolves circling you in the dark woods, you realize how vulnerable you are.

Me too. I had them follow me almost a mile back to my ATV after trailing a big bull I was trying to get a shot at. I finally gave up when it too dark in the bush,but,light enough to see the trail to go out. There's only been a few times I've had crap happen that really worried me. That was at the top of the list. This article was an excellent account of plain good luck.
