    Guided Caribou Hunts

    Elkaddict, it doesnt matter why.If you enjoy hunting thats the thing.Every year we have out of staters come up here just for the hunt,racks or big bears, and most donate the meat anyhow.Thats the beauty of having money to burn and enjoy what you want to do.Personally I always want the meat and thats what I hunt for. 123456, no problem, glad I could help out.Im sure the only thing you need if your hunting in an Archery only area you need to be IBEP certified.But I would take catfish campbell up on his offer Every year I talk about going there to try my hand at a Moose hunt, but work always wins out.

    Guided Caribou Hunts

    Logistically? Have you ever watched Ice Road Truckers? here in Alaska? Well you dang sure wont be driving that road in the snow or ice We actually call it the Haul Road btw. Anyhow,once you leave Fairbanks you are pretty much on your own for the next few hundred miles.4-5 hours later depending on conditions you would hit Coldfoot and get gas and food, your last stop for the next 200 miles or so.To Deadhorse. Once you leave Coldfoot and get to Atigun Pass you start road hunting for Caribou and keep an eye out for Wolves and Musk Ox.You would tent camp.There are several areas where ppl kinda mass camp.Some take jet boats out as other use air transporters to fly to the herds and drop them off. If you are meat hunting like we do up here then go Mid August-mid September. Season opens July 1st tho.If you want to hunt horns go in October and the meat is piss poor rotten nasty as they drink there piss for the rut and its down right nasty.If you want great tasting meat and slightly mediocre antlers then go as I previously mentioned and remember the horns are in velvet and still growing. No problem on sending meat home as long as your pockets are deep. Another catch is that the first 5 miles on either side of the road for the entire stretch from the Yukon River to Deadhorse is Archery only.And walking in the tundra is like walking on tennis balls on a trampolin.Hunt close to the Brooks Range its rocky, near the ocean bout the same,and along the river beds.And by all means if you see caribou and your trying to stalk them as they walk away from you,DO NOT FOLLOW them as you will never catch up.Its very enjoyable and cool up there.Weatherwise no matter if its Aug or Oct,it can snow,rain, be hot as heck and or be windy.

    Guided Caribou Hunts

    Azbuckeye,you could always fly into Fairbanks here and rent a pickup from Airport rentals, and drive up the haul road over Atigun Pass to the North side of the Brooks Range and Archery hunt Caribou from there to Dead Horse.And you can perhaps gain more info from http://forums.outdoorsdirectory.com/forum

    Amanda I really like that on the ground shot placed inside the rocks...way cool.I put mine fairly low on trees close to the ground and The bears tend not to bother with them.I may have to try your idea ,maybe even place one in the hollow end of a log. You gave me ideas

    My Spring Bear season is over.

    To funny fellas. Man let me tell ya. Of course no Grizz pics but I did get some beautiful rshots while running the river and the hard part is taking pic's while Sasquatch is woofing at me and running they the brush and slapping brush around all the while while stalking me and trying to figure out how to Sneak up behind me. It wasn't easy dragging a bear to the rivers edge to keep my back there while keeping an eye out for Sasquatch.i finally had to shoot him after he made several attempts to cross a ol to get at me that was 10 yards away. When I'm not tired fellas I have a few crappy pics I suppose I could show.
  11. I was fortunate enough to tag out on all four Bears this Spring.One Grizz and three Black Bears.Thought I'd just share since Im still stoked over the fact, and I put just over 400 miles on the boat in the past three weekends.Anyhow I hope you all are having some luck as well.

    Any Spring Bear Sign Yet?

    Easter Weekend typically we can start finding blow outs up high on the south side of the mountains, but it wont be another 6 weeks till I can get to the river and start baiting. But this info may not help you since your in Arizona lol!
