on a lighter note...

You don't understand anything, this is an inexpensive epilation.

but why a little strange pose? The snow is such that there is nothing to do without skis, and if you took a step away from the snowmobile trail... then wait until they pull it out. Moreover, it is impossible to pull out even one boot, you have to dig it out:

and in the old days, on the night of Ivan Kupala (June 22), girls jumped over the fire.
 
I once stepped off my skis to clear a binding. I must have been over an air pocket. I caught one of my skis on the way by and somehow was able to muscle my way back up.

One thing you learned was to stay away from small pine trees when skiing or snowshoeing. They are actually large pine trees and will have a shadow (air pocket) on the downwind side that can be very difficult to get out of if you fall into it. On the flip side, if you are stuck in the woods at night you want to get into one of these air pockets. They are perfect snow caves and the dead branches at the base burn easily. The tree acts as a chimney.

I have never been in such a landscape, and generally hunt on skis individually. I got into areas with cedar elfin, slightly covered with snow, it is an ideal anti-personnel barrier. In the spruce forest, as part of a group, you can spend the night comfortably.
And now there is a rather rare situation, a record level of snow - in open places just above the knee and it is possible to walk from the snowmobile trail to the position, having trampled. In the lowlands and places where snow accumulates, there can be anything. If you fall, it is difficult to get up, there is nothing to lean on - the hand goes into the snow up to the shoulder. And in this case, the bottom layer of snow was wet, but at the same time solid, and there was water under it, despite the low temperature (snow is a good thermal insulator), and the foot fell into a trap. But there was no pulling out by snowmobile.

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
