I am looking at booking a HIGH QUALITY caribou hunt for 2010. I have been poking around for a couple years on selecting an outfitter. I am now only days away from putting money down and Arctic Safaris looks to be the place to put it. Barry Taylor seems like a nice guy and was very patient and helpful in answering all of my questions. Since this is a LOT of cash for me and not something I will get to do very often I am eager to make the right choice. Has anyone had any personal experience with Barry's outfit? Pro's? Con's? Is the hunt still a premium hunt with the current herd numbers??? thanks!

Might want to check 09 results of outfitters. Although I have no personal expirence with the outfit you mention I know it was a poor year for Caribou this year due to herds not moving. True north only had 6-8 caribou taken for the whole season for around 60 hunters and they were not quality bulls.

From other hunters I talked to all the camps had the same poor hunting as the herds were not moving south. Might be a good idea to wait and see that 2010 is not the same situation before laying down money to cruise around and see nothing.
