have 'em all set up. 118 00:07:04,357 --> 00:07:06,358 But before I can set them up, 119 00:07:06,426 --> 00:07:10,095 I'm going to clear out all this brush and have like a nice, 120 00:07:10,163 --> 00:07:13,498 level area to work with. 121 00:07:13,500 --> 00:07:15,834 Get all these weeds out of here, 122 00:07:15,836 --> 00:07:18,170 should be able to shape up this land. 123 00:07:19,573 --> 00:07:22,707 The Brooks Range is where I spend the winter, 124 00:07:22,776 --> 00:07:25,777 then come back down to Fritz Creek in the spring 125 00:07:25,779 --> 00:07:27,312 and in the summer. 126 00:07:27,514 --> 00:07:29,781 In Alaska, I have a short but sweet growing period. 127 00:07:29,850 --> 00:07:31,716 It's a small window of time, 128 00:07:31,785 --> 00:07:35,654 but during that window of time I get a lot of sun. 129 00:07:35,922 --> 00:07:38,389 So, I'm gonna capitalize on this opportunity to get a 130 00:07:38,392 --> 00:07:41,259 garden in the ground, start raising some produce. 131 00:07:41,328 --> 00:07:44,162 Which is gonna kinda carry me through the summer. 132 00:07:48,001 --> 00:07:49,868 Looking pretty good. 133 00:07:50,871 --> 00:07:53,839 Think I could fit

Just kinda get some of these lumps and clumps out 137 00:08:11,024 --> 00:08:13,424 so the logs can lay flat, 138 00:08:13,427 --> 00:08:15,794 and the beds can be nice and even. 139 00:08:17,498 --> 00:08:20,398 Think that'll do, so I'm gonna grab the longer ones, 140 00:08:21,568 --> 00:08:24,035 put 'em on this side 'cause I kinda have a little bit 141 00:08:24,104 --> 00:08:27,506 more room and my space kinda narrows as it goes back so. 142 00:08:27,574 --> 00:08:31,243 It's a little late in the year and that's not 143 00:08:31,311 --> 00:08:33,979 a laziness it's just a lack of time. 144 00:08:34,047 --> 00:08:37,182 Start right here, first log. 145 00:08:37,985 --> 00:08:42,120 There is just always a lot to do when I get to each camp 146 00:08:42,188 --> 00:08:44,522 before I can

So, it's kind of a one-shot opportunity. 150 00:08:53,867 --> 00:08:57,402 I needed to act now and move fast. 151 00:08:57,404 --> 00:08:59,003 So, the boxes are complete, 152 00:08:59,006 -->

00:09:17,022 There's some responsibility and obligation to be able to 159 00:09:17,090 --> 00:09:18,990 pass that down to my kids. 160 00:09:20,227 --> 00:09:23,094 It's how I put my stamp on Alaska

00:09:43,984 --> 00:09:46,451 it's kind of the last time before getting into summertime 170 00:09:46,453 --> 00:09:47,986 where we don't hunt a whole bunch, 171 00:09:48,054 --> 00:09:50,521 so it's a necessity to get out and capitalize in this 172 00:09:50,524 --> 00:09:52,390 time of year. 173 00:09:55,929 --> 00:09:59,464 Can you smell that? 174 00:09:59,666 --> 00:10:02,200 That's sweet, that
