| I would allocate a week to each species, and even that is pushing it. You'll be spending a fair bit of time traveling to different hunting areas, and every day of travel is a lost hunting day, as you can't hunt the same day you are airborne on bush planes. You'll also more than likely have one of those weeks weathered in. I could see getting 3 out of 5 in 4 weeks, but all those species in one trip would be pushing it.

| Well all i could hope for would be to get lucky enough to get 2 animals in one area, that would increase my odds of completing this hunt but yeah, I agree with you that 3 out of 5 would probably be doing good.

| You may have a hard time finding a single guide to do all these hunts due to the limits placed on guide use areas. The other thing to consider is trophy quality. You may find bear, sheep, moose and caribou in the same area but trophy quality may be sub par on some of the animals.

We're going to be "gifted" with a health care plan we are forced to purchase and fined if we don't, Which purportedly covers at least ten million more people, without adding a single new doctor, but provides for 16,000 new IRS agents, written by a committee whose chairman says he doesn't understand it, passed by a Congress that didn't read it but exempted themselves from it, and signed by a President, with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn't pay his taxes, for which we'll be taxed for four years before any benefits take effect, by a government which has already bankrupted Social Security and Medicare, all to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, and financed by a country that's broke!!!!!

| The most reasonable trio would be a Griz,Sheep, Bou combo if you were flown into the Brooks. As for Brown bear and Goats you could probably do that if you drew Kodiak for both. The moose thing mixed in might make it tuff but if you were in the right part of the Brooks you might be able to get that one in on the firt trio I mentioned. But you better get your checkbook out if you paln on hauling all that game out of the field in Cub, thats a lot of trips. Sounds good though. |

| ROSCOE, I am a resident so I don't have to hire any guides for this hunt and I'm not looking for record book animals either, mainly just good representations of each. Could take some serious planning and I'd have a few years to do it, hell, the funs in the planning right??

| I threw that idea around in my head a few times as well and even complained to fellow co-workers about the mad hours we have to work during the fall and have threatened to take a whole month off for hunting. |

| I'd think success would revolve around taking a sheep quickly, followed by the mt goat. After that, the rest would come easy.

| Are you talking consecutive weeks? I have killed all the animals mentioned in one year and a couple more. Black, brown bear in the spring, 4 days. Sheep, moose, caribou, Total of 8 days. Goat 2 days. Blacktail deer. 2 days. That would be tough if you wanted to do it all in the fall. Good luck though, should be fun planning and attempting! |

| I've taken everything on that list but a goat over the years but I thought it would be fun to try and take all 5, not in one trip but within a month. I also think the sheep would be the toughest one to bag first but one could get lucky.....
