    Prince of Wales Island - Spring Black Bear Hunt

    We were only fishing. This trip we saw 2 bears while driving for sure and a half a dozen maybes. My last trip we saw more than a dozen from the road in a week. Lots of deer, lots of bears and trout everywhere. I love the island.

Boats and vehicles were well kept and offered no problems. I would definitely recommend. But I have done other things...

    Gas Grill Gripe.

    I am looking as well. My next project is in Canada and I just started ‘very low carb’ carnivore diet. I want a cooker/smoker, a vacuum sealer, sausage stuffer and a meat grinder. But what is really needed is a consensus. Every discussion on every site is just like this one. They are all full...

    Less is…less.

    Following up on that, Statistically, every plant or animal that has ever lived, is dead. Despite all the life you see around you, it is a very very small amount compared to what has died. For ages, survival of the best adapted has been the rule. People have turned that on its head for our...

    Screwing over the Non-resident (or not)?

    Hunt any state you want, FOR FREE!! Most of us won’t get one anyway. So save the license and tag fees, go out to Idaho, camp for a week and freeze your Christy off. Eat crappy freeze dried meals, don’t get enough rest, drink too much, rub shoulders with all the other hunters in the pumpkin...

    Further restrictions proposed for NR caribou hunting in Alaska

    I know Skip, I know the circumstances around his legal battle. I also have knowledge of tribal hunting rights. I am slightly offended by your comment, however, I respect your right to sling innuendo.

    How to questions

    I have not hunted elk the last 10 years or so since I moved to Alaska, but, I never hunted travel routes. I moved a lot, bumped them and followed them. Never worried a lot about being too quiet either. Elk are loud, they expect some noise. I toot on a cow call every now and then as I stumble...
