Someone tell me about it. My son is stationed at JBER and doesn't know where to start.
Thanks,
John

Not likely to find much for either close to Anchorage or the Valley. Both areas see quite a bit of pressure and both birds and bunnies can be hard to find.
It may take getting out of town a ways to find good numbers of either. Paxson always seems to have decent numbers of ptarmigan. I don't know the rabbit situation this year as we've been gone most of the fall either with me on the slope or traveling to deal with family illness.
Wish I could be more help to your son. Thank you for his service.
Chronographs, bore scopes and pattern boards have broke a lot of hearts.
It's not really close to Achortown, but sooner or later your son should drive to McCarthy. He will see lots of ptarmigan on the road between Chitina and McCarthy.

Wind in my hair, Sun on my face, I gazed at the wide open spaces, And I was at home.
Near is a relative term in Alaska. If you can drive there in a day, it's near.
Corrected for excessive wordiness.
Always got a good laugh out of the lower 48 boys complain about driving 200-250 miles to go hunting i tell them that's nothing. Then tell them about driving up to the North slope to go caribou hunting 700 plus miles one way..

Several hundred miles of which are gravel road and you need to factor in the cost of a new windshield and maybe a tire or two into the cost of the hunt.
Generally true. I did manage to make it from Anchorage to Lake Louis in a relatively speaking short time driving my wife's autobahn bomber, but I had to be really attentive to frost heaves! I averaged 60 mph, and that included two stops and some slow windy sections. You're generally lucky to average 50 mph with no stops on AK highways.
