Alaska 2026 Caribou/Moose Hunt Air Charters

[Magnum Sherpa]

Do you have a recommendation for outfitter/transporter? Looking at doing a plane drop off caribou hunt.

I don’t have any recommendations for anyone I have personally used. One of my coworkers did a hunt with Ram Aviation out of Kotzebue last year and they went 4/4 on nice caribou. He said it was a really well-run operation. If you do go out of Kotzebue stay away from Arctic Air - I can give that warning from personal experience.

We are planning another caribou hunt next year and will probably work directly with an air taxi service rather than a transporter.

What are the risks/benefits to using an air taxi vs transporter?
