Any interest in an actual hunting thread ?

[CRJR45]

That’s pretty much the state of all air travel these days, bad weather or not. Safe travels and good luck!

Thank you Austin . Have I mentioned I hate flying , lately?

On a plane again , waiting to depart Houston .
7 hour trip , my ass is sore already ,
Met some nice people on the layer over though .
Funny to see people loosing their shit over this debacle, reminds of me when I was young and dumb still , like two years ago .
Onward and upward!

 

[CRJR45]

Landed and everything made it here , Woo-Hoo

 

[CRJR45]

Well so far this trip has been stupendous!
The wife and I doing the tourist thing , everyone has been super nice , the fishing was ok , but it was cool being out there .

Good luck, it looks like a great trip. I was curious where you will store your rifle and hunting gear when you are on the cruise?

The plan was to take the gear to the transporter, but we cancelled the cruise and are just fishing , and white water rafting.

Fishing the Kenai river was fun , hope they’re good to eat !

 

[CRJR45]

Food poisoning sucks !
We got Subway the night before our fishing trip and put them in the hotel fridge .
Turns out the fridge wasn’t working but we didn’t realize it till we checked out today.
I’m deathly ill , the wife , not even fazed by it , she has a cast iron stomach.

Cancelled the rapids , taking a sick day .
Tune in tomorrow for more fun filled adventures.

 

[CRJR45]

Well it’s a new day !
Sinuses are clear , I’m not bent over puking , the suns out , and we are off to hike to a waterfall .

 

[CRJR45]

Waterfalls and Glaciers today , lots of hiking .

 

[CRJR45]

Well the wife’s home and I’m sitting in a lodge waiting for the wind to die down .
Hopefully I’ll fly in tomorrow.
Sure is pretty around here .

What a view.

No moose was harmed in the making of this thread , dammit!
What a blast though , Meekins was great , and I could not be happier, well except for killing a moose .
I kind of looked at it like a camping with a rifle after James had to cancel .
The moose were there , just not where I could get to , or get it out if I did get one .
Setting in the Anchorage airport , I’ll update later .

Sorry that you didn’t get a moose, but glad you had a good time

Just ordered the CVA endura Lrh from muzzleloader.com. Top notch service Everytime I deal with them. They also price matched the gun! Any thoughts on this muzz?

So I plan on doing a float hunt in the brooks range in a few years. It’s unguided through an outfitter. The two main ones they offer is moose or caribou. This will be my first time in Alaska. So what would you guys recommend chasing I’d be stoked to shoot either. While a part of me really wants a moose I’ve heard a lot of people say caribou is a better hunt for first timers. What’s all your guys input on it?

I would not keep food anywhere near my tent, I don't care what people say.

I am in the planning stages for a Alaska hunt , my first , should I post about it or shall we continue the veiled political posts ?

My wife and I hope to fly up in the middle of August and spend some time fishing and sightseeing for a couple weeks . Then she will fly home while me and a friend fly into the bush for ten days . I have the tag and transport all lined up , just more ideas about what NOT to bring , LOL .
I'm the over packing kind of guy .

Any interest ?

Short answer, yes
