More mosee out then in past years.
We have seen much more moose out on the roads this past winter through now. We have not seen this many in the last 6-8 years.
This summer alone we have had 3-4 really close calls with moose, most at night but one about mid morning.
Heading north for the 4th towing a trailer I had the closest call ever. Funny thing is I had just said to my wife I need to crank up on the electric brake controller. Thankfully I did because the trailer braked harder then the truck did and we missed the moose by just a few feet. Jack Russell’s were flying everywhere inside the truck.
I run two 100watt aircraft lights which give me about ¼ mile visibility down the road at night. Many of the logging truckers also run these lights up in North Country.
Glad everyone was ok; many times the outcome is not so good when moose are involved.
