Love these older videos. Was a simpler, honorable time. Families worked together, and a general respect for elders was usually present. Thanks hope to watch more.

Remember selling spring beaver in Fort Mackay in 1973 a 25$ beaver could buy all the gas tobacco and supplies 2 trappers would need for a week or so. Still trap but I miss those days people were so generous and had so much stamina and ability to accept hardships with a smile.

I doubt 1% of this life style exists today, very unfortunate.
