YAK TRACKS: "Yak Pack:" Deadline Poet (courtesy Vermont's Dana Jewell)

Yak pack arrived intact.

Still frozen in fact.

Steak and ribs and sausage in sacks.

What, no yak Big Mac?

I'm going to cook it on the deck out back.

My grill came with a nice yak rack on a track, so I'll give it a whack.
I guess poetic skills I lack.

I'm a hack, a quack, like the duck from Aflac, I don't have the knack.

And so ends this yak crack attack.

Excerpt from Dr. Seuss, "Horton smacked a yak, and put him in a stack.'

YAK TRACKS: Sausage at Sugarbush - Winter 2011 Season!

We are pleased to have our yak sausage featured on the menu at Sugarbush Resort's beautiful TIMBERS restaurant.

Here's a photo of the menu, shot while skiing at Allen Lodge, midway up the mountain at Lincoln Peak.

YAK TRACKS: Seeking Yak Hide for Brussels Museum...

Note: You just can't make up stuff like this email we received from Belgium. We'll get that hide right over the Pond...

Dear Miss/Mister,

The Museum of Natural Sciences in Brussels (Belgium) is looking for a
hide of a adult yak to mount it for display in an exhibition called,
Extremes.

Therefore, I'm contacting you: do you have a complete yak hide (head,
tail, etc) available, that would be suitable to mount?
If yes, how much would this cost? And how long would it take to get to
Belgium?
If no, could you prepare one? And again how much would this cost? And
how long would it take to get to Belgium?

I look forward to hear from you,

Have a nice day,

Kind regards,

Sophie Boitsios
