I'm headed to the slope for Caribou this season, and we've been trying to find someone that would has freezer space for rent to get everything frozen before the flight back, or worst case a butcher that...- dragginwood

Caribou Trophies.
These are all beautiful creatures. I'm headed to AK for a 'bou hunt in 2021.. Curious how you guys were able to preserve your hides? Was it cold enough to just flesh it and hang? (I'm anticipating 40's..) Did you flesh and salt the hide? Turn ears and split lips & nose....? Curious how far down...- dragginwood

Alaska North Slope - Stove Fuel?
Hey Folks, Hoping for some help. I've been told not to bring gas fuel to the North Slope as it doesn't burn well. Does anyone have experience directly to validate?

What’s too cold to tent camp.
How do you guys keep your water liquid while out hiking during the day? I ran into some sub-zero weather unexpectedly during a CO Elk hunt in 2019. Slept with my water in my bag at night, but after a few hour hike I went to grab a drink from my Nalgene and instead found a solid block of ice...- dragginwood

Any saddle hunters on HT?
I'm a saddle hunter from MI and won't go back to traditional tree stands. My last 3 deer I would not have I agree the initial setup is a bit on the expensive side, way easier to leverage one for multiple stand locations. Which to me is one of the main perks. I can setup 15 stand locations with...- dragginwood

I've started bringing a .22 or .223 and alternating between them so that I can trick my mind away from flinching. Great rifle, if I wasn't already setup I'd be sending a PM.- dragginwood
