ZhurhSubsistence caribou starts on the 10th, but none hanging around the end of the Taylor; course they could show up later this week. Never can predict them bou. I see more bear in blueberries in Sept than Aug.

AbobPhil,
I've never been a fan of interior ptarmigans when it comes to eating. But the ones on Adak Island were delicious. Must have been their diet out there.

Good luck to all.
