First moose and first Alaska big game animal! 54 inches. Thanks to everyone who helped out

My dad will be coming up to Alaska this weekend for his first visit since I moved to Fairbanks a few years ago. We will be heading to Seward to try for some halibut, but on the way down I thought it would be fun to try and get him hooked into a salmon with his fly rod. Neither of us have...

Does anyone know anything about this air service? Just to be clear, this IS a different operations than 40 mile air...http://www.tokairservice.com/wrangell-tok-hunting-support I am planning a moose hunt for my father in 2015 and have been doing a lot of research on air charters for a drop off...

Has anyone floated Butte Creek? Access is South of the Denali highway 2 or 3 miles to Butte Lake. The creek drains south from the lake and makes a big "U" before flowing into the big Su just downstream from the bridge. Looks like it would be 35 miles or so from Butte Lake to a take out spot on...

Sounds like there are a lot of designs out there for making homemade archery targets. One design that has me intrigued is stuffing a burlap sack with plastic grocery bags. Sounded crazy to me at first, but there seems to be a lot of guys that use them. Has anyone tried this design with modern...

I'm looking for a good quality used pack raft, preferably a Denali Llama, and I am sure I'm not the only one! Thought I would put a notice out there before we get any closer to rafting season in case somebody had one they were planning on putting up for sale this spring. Also, any information on...

My girlfriend has expressed some interest in taking up archery, which I am thrilled with! I have only been bowhunting for 5 years now, and don't know a lot about shopping for a new bow so I'm looking for any input on good starter bows for small frame/ female archers. She is pretty nervous about...

So I have been studying the topo maps trying to look for the next spot I'll try hiking the 5 miles in for caribou off the haul road, and I notice that there are many access roads shooting off of the highway. Some just go the the pipeline, some to gravel pits, some to field stations etc. I have...

I am trying to plan a late summer caribou trip this year with the idea being that I could hike in the 5 miles, rifle hunt for a couple days, then float back to the highway. One area that I have been looking into is the Lupine River drainage that is south east of Happy Valley. This would require...
