Well it's finally here. I drew a Nunivak Island winter muskox tag last year and I fly out tomorrow morning. I'll report when I get a chance. Luckily it's supposed to be cold and really windy....so I've got that going for me!

May winds be never at your tail When stalking down the steep; May bears be never on your trail When packing out your sheep. May the hundred pounds upon you Not make you break or trip; And may the plane in which you flew Await you at the strip. -Seth Peterson | ||

Here's pictures of the muskox:     I was very impressed with how tough they are! I shot this muskox with my .325wsm and 200 grain TSX hand loads going 2,940fps. I have NEVER recovered one from a moose. I shot him 3 times through the ribs broadside at 50-60 yards! I recovered all 3 bullets under the offside hide!
