History
of the Alaska Trappers Association ATA has a proud history, which begins even prior to the formation of the organization back in 1973. Several strong presidents have led us through the years. There have been: · good times and bad times, · happy events and sad events, · and failures. Former president Pete Buist has recaptured many of those times in his new book on the history of ATA. Buist's entertaining style pulls no punches. He "... tells it like it was." The 54 page text includes many photos which augment the rich stories. In addition, sketches by Joe Dart and John Majak provide extra character. Appendices include info regarding: · lifetime members, · past members of the Board of Directors, and · past recipients of the Fabian Carey Trapper of the Year. This book will be enjoyed by both long-term members who lived through the many incidents described in the book, as well as newer members who wish to learn more about the background and history of our organization.

ATA Wolf Trapping
Manual ATA Wolf Trapping DVD 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 ATA Wolf Trapping Manual - $25 + s/h ATA Wolf Trapping DVD - $25 + s/h SPECIAL OFFER!

Alaskans
How to Handbook 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. $20.00 |
