One of my best buds.
We did some crazy extreme hunting in years past. Always thought of the two of us I'd be first to check out cause I was always going on borderline stupid back-country/mountain hunts & he was always up for them. We were terrors of the animal kingdom tho.
Damn. Sucks.

Searchers are looking for a missing snowmachiner last seen headed to Caribou Lake on April 3. Bryan Farrow, 47, of Homer was last seen leaving a Greer Road residence at around noon on a 1989 Yamaha Phazer snowmachine with intentions of traveling 20 miles to visit a friend living near Caribou Lake. A neighbor reported him missing to Alaska State Troopers on the evening of April 7. Since then, a trooper helicopter and two fixed wing aircraft, one from AST and another from the Civil Air Patrol, have conducted air searches in the area. Meanwhile, friends and neighbors were joined by searchers from the Central Emergency Services in Soldotna and a local snowmachine club, the Snowmads, to comb the trails on snowmachines and on foot. Both ground

and air searches have been unsuccessful in locating Farrow or his red sled. The area covered in the extensive Caribou Hills trail system is between his last known whereabouts, his house in the Falls Creek area and the lake.
Farrow is an accomplished outdoorsman and was dressed for the whether, but it is unknown if he had proper gear to overnight in Caribou Hills. Farrow is described as 6-foot-3, weighing 180 pounds with dark gray hair and beard.

sorry for your loss :(

but maybe it's karma, you know, the whole killing animals for fun and all as a hobby lmaooo
There's nothing wrong with hunting animals that you eat. It's shooting animals and leaving them that's wrong.



Anyway, sorry for your loss bro. It's always tough to lose someone you're close to.
