I'm an AK res, past 10 years and finally drew caribou, DC001. I lived in Kodiak up until last year; have done plenty of deer, sheep, goat hunting; and harvested all the above. But, I haven't hunted caribou yet, and I haven't hiked the resurrection trail. I have some ideas for access to the herd. But, I'm interested in other's experience doing this hunt. (I have been to the antlerworks web site.)
I understand the odds are low. So, I'm thinking about paying the money to go in on horseback since that appears to be the best option to get to the right country. However, I'm not opposed to considering other options. Has anyone flown in? What air charter might be good to consider; one that knows the herd? Is the Chickaloon or Resurrection Cr floatable with an inflatable canoe (Aire Traveller), if so how high? I'd like to hike or bike but so far I'll be by myself if I choose that route. I'm not looking for "the spot". But any other input might help me make my decissions.
Thanks,
