Iron Cross ?? WW1

[Steinar]

Hello!
Thanks for the interest!
My cabin was realy bad when I first got here.. it had been standing for several years without use. But now I have covered most of the inside (and outside) with skinn, so now things are very good now

Stories.. hmm.. last week I was out checking what we call "snare", I quess the english word would be "trap" or something.. It's a thin wire shaped into a circle just a few cm over the snow, when a bird get it's head into the circle.. it's bird on the menu Anyway, when I was returning to the cabin, I saw a polar bear walking towards my cabin. I had stored most of my food high up, but that day there was a lot of birds and seals hanging outside my cabin.. A guy that that lives a few km away, sometimes uses my cabin to make his coffe and eat his lunch when out hunting. It's great to have a visitor sometimes, but now I wasn't 100% sure he was in there or not..
So when the bear was about 100m away from the cabin, I fired a few rounds in the air. But by then the bear had smelled the meat and was realy up for a snack.. I was standing about 400m away from the cabin, my only hope was that when the bear got 50m away from the cabin, a flare would go off. For safety I have a thin wire connected to a flares that go off with a bang and light. The flare went off, and the bear turned and run 50m away.. there it stopped.. I didn't want to shoot it, specially since it wasn't going after me, but my food. So I started shooting in the snow about a 1m in front of the bear. After 10 rounds the bear ran away.. It's common to see bears here, but this was the first time I had to make one run away, so it was quite a adrenaline rush for me

Have a nice day!
