Alaska Wolf Trapping Manual ATA Wolf Trapping Manual - $25 + s/h
ATA Wolf Trapping DVD - $25 + s/h
SPECIAL OFFER! Get Both the Manual and DVD - Only $40.00 + s/h
     After several years of development and production, the collective experience of Alaska's very best wolf trappers has been consolidated into a manual and DVD. The info contained in these teaching tools would take the average trapper an entire lifetime to learn. Now, you can learn both the basics and the 'secret' tricks of the trade. It's all available to you in this manual and DVD, to learn at your own speed. These two items do not duplicate each other. Rather, they were developed to complement each other. We recommend that they be purchased as a pair.
     The manual includes 123 pages of firsthand practical information, including detailed drawings. The 34 minute long DVD supplements that material by clearly demonstrating the principles described in the manual at real-life settings on Alaskan traplines, for catching North America's largest and cagiest furbearer.
     "The... Manual is the 'Encyclopedia Alaskana' on wolf trapping.... It explains in plain language and outstanding illustrations how this knowledge can be applied."
Dick Bishop – retired game biologist and occasional trapper
     "I am favorably impressed by your new video. Anyone who traps wolves could profit by the tips provided. The greatest value is... the graphic examples of various wolf sets. My congratulations... for this forward-thinking presentation."
Jim Rearden – author of Alaska's Wolf Man and former member of the Alaska Board of Game
Alaskans How to Handbook - $20.00
The "How To" book is the brainchild of long-term ATA Editor Joe Dart. Joe wanted to preserve some of the skills necessary for life in The Bush. He interviewed the experts & put their thoughts into words & pictures which are easily understood. You can learn how to make snowshoes, a fish wheel, a dog sled and many other useful tools. This book is fascinating reading even if you never plan to actually construct the items described. It also makes an excellent gift.
