Rex Beach on Snow Trailing as Real Sport in Canada

Rex Beach shares hunting philosophy shaped by decades as a big game devotee. He prefers snow trailing moose, caribou, and dene in Canada over big game in the United States, and relishes tough journeys, dogs, guides, and hardy gear. He recalls a three week cougar hunt in Oregon with family and describes wildlife and regional hunting trends, noting natives and ancient hunters faced limits on cougar numbers while quail and waterfowl shooting differ in approach.
