I heard an interesting story the other day.
Two guys were driving down the road near Tok and happened upon a road kill caribou with a tie down strap around it’s neck. Curious, they slowed down to take a closer look. Headlights approached, and the other truck slowed down, too.
In the other truck were two old men. One of the older guys said that he was trying to get the caribou into their truck and had just gone to town to round up some help. Some of the young men in town they spoke with weren’t too keen on heading out in minus 50 degree weather. He was only able to rustle up the help of another guy who was even older. The two of them hadn’t been able to lift the 250 lb.-plus adult cow.
“I’m on the list,” he said. “Would you help us?”
