NWACH looks like it's taking another hit. Low 30 temps and rain from Nome to Barrow is gonna ice up the forage and bloody up the hocks.
40 mile herd you have about 4 choices: Fly -in, boat from Eagle or Circle to and up the 70-mile or maybe some other streams, Taylor or Steese Hwy, and maybe Chena Hot Springs road.
Depends on where the caribou are - I had 3 good years up the Steese, this year didn't see an animal. They were all in the most inaccessible area between the Steese and Taylor. I could have gone back on the winter hunt, however, when there were some animals along the Steese, but didn't.
