That is one massive rack!  Well maybe not for caribou, but it sure looks huge compared to the whitetails around Ohio.  Looks like some good meat for the freezer.

Thanks for all the great comments. Sorry about the concise comments, I probably should have posted when I had a bit more time to write. Things always seem to move at the speed of light up here, always something whether preparing for winter or getting ready to go hunt something. I have added some pictures of the last few months or so. I hope all is well with everyone.
