coniferI need a partner for Aug./06 bou hunt in Alaska
Last year, I (and 2 partners) had arranged with Richard Gardner (Delta Jcn.) for 10-day caribou
hunt (forty-mile herd). My son became very ill 6 days prior to scheduled departure; I had to bow out of hunt. My partners got great bucks and lots of grayling, and loved it all.
Richard has allowed me a spot this next summer, but I really want a partner. Please...if anyone may possibly be interested...give me a holler for info. Thanks a million.

coniferCost is 2500. for outfitted, 10-day hunt from Fairbanks. Drive to Delta Junction (by outfitter), then fly to camp. Only additional fee (license also) is 400 for meat-collecting flight). All supplied except own food. Country is GORGEOUS.

cmfic1Is there a website I could check out? If not, where is it? What size bulls could a guy get into? What herd?

coniferPlease send me your e-mail address. I will send you web-site and data. It *is* a drop-hunt. Neither you (Canadian) nor I (Florida resident...Canadian and American citizen) )need a guide.

HARDBALLERConifer,
I looked at the Alaska regs and it states " Non-res who are not citizens of the U.S. are required to be personally accompanied in the field by a licensed guide when hunting any species of big game." FYI.

Bear in Fairbankscmfic1:
Sorry to have to write this but as a nonresident alien, you need a guide for all big game hunting here in Ak. Conifer, as a nonresident, can hunt caribou on his own however. Sorry to splash water on your plans, but "them's the regs". Bear in Fairbanks
Unless you're the lead dog, the scenery never changes.

cmfic1Thanx Bear. I knew that already, but thought the regs may have changed.

Oh well.
