The boys are back with their loot — 80 or so woodland caribou antlers. Left to right, standing: Dylan Schoelzel (guide), Andy Lewis, Pat Slevin, John Vick, Alex Verhave, Steven Penske, Reed Ryan, Owen Farris, Dana Shonk (staffman). Kneeling: Jeremy Welch, Scott Waterman, Rob Nestor. LINER NOTES:
Caribou Racks Everywhere Dylan found one of the first racks (first week into the trip), which was also the biggest. After that they just were everywhere: campsites, shoreline (especially on the McPhayden in Labrador). We just picked 'em up off the ground. In the end, I'd say we had about sixty or so, the count was vague. We had a hell of a time getting those things on the bus with our gear for the trip back to Temagami. We attached Dylan's, which was a full rack (most were shed halves), onto the front of the school bus. Yeah, right on the grill.
