    Dreams Can Come True

    CPAJeff -Good luck in your trek up here to my home town and beyond. Mdhunter makes a good point on having rooms reserved for the in/out bound. We haven't be as busy with the covid thing going on but still follow that advise. Fast Eddy's is an option (907) 883-4411. They are across the highway...

    Trip Planning

    Go over to the state of alaska site. (www.ak.state.us/) They have a ton of info regarding when the various kinds of fish are at their best and where. Don't neglect Valdez as a place to fish out of. The silver fishing there is excellent if you like action fish. There is also halibut and kings...

    lilbiggun - If you are talking the caribou creek down by the nebesna road and up to the tanana you will be covering lots of ground. Lots of bears around about 105 mile down to about 60 mile. Around the little tok & tok river drainages are killers for bear. Find the old road sections to kick off...

    Buffalo

    I put in for a buffalo every year here in Alaska. And have so far been unlucky at drawing. Yes we have several huntable herds here. Only in the Delta hunts could a tow truck be used. Its a wimp hunt compared to the others but I still put in for it as my 3rd choice. The others are far too remote...
