My sister has moved to AK and, of course, I am going to take advantage of this and hunt brown bear and griz, and possibly mnt goat in fall 2007 (I am a NR). Yes I understand all the reg's we will have to obey and we will follow the reg's.
AK is HUGE and has a lot of different units etc, I am a research nut and plan big hunts very carefully. At this point I am begining my planning and I am hoping you can give me some pointers where to start looking.
I REALLY want to hunt griz and dall sheep, mnt goat is good too, with a bonus of moose or bou nice. What places/units should I look at to hunt griz and dalls from the same camp? I am willing to pay to fly in anywhere. I likely will plan a solid 3 weeks hunting (with several additional days for flying) so I can hunt different areas, but I would prefer to hunt somewhere with a good chance seeing a griz while sheep hunting or vice versa. Or go to a good area with sheep and moose, slim chance at a griz, then go to different spot with griz and bou.
I do not need any specifics yet, just some ideas to start my research, also please reccomend any books, website, links or sources of info that might help my in the early part of my search.
I plan to apply for tok for dalls too, but hunt elsewhere if not drawn (which most likely I will not be!).
Do I need to worry about drawing tags for griz, sheep or goat or are there plenty of good areas where tags are OTC? From what I here draw hunts are typically close to civilization, any remote areas are OTC with few exceptions. Obviosly I will apply for draw areas, but plan on hunting OTC areas. Thanks DonV
