Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Alaska DIY Float Hunt

Yeah, I would skip the Charley and find a river that has some water in it.

Yeah, so far a river with water in it, accessible 'bous in public hunting land seems to be a tall order.

Not really, I posted some info above that offers what you're looking for but I have no idea what costs could run these days as it's been 10 years since I've been up there on a float hunt. For 12 of us I think we paid something like $1500 each for the flights in and out.

The flights in and out that you paid $1500 for 10 years ago are upwards of 3K now. That's exactly what we're trying to avoid. When I say commercial(ish), I'm talking about someplace like Wright or Warbelows on a regularly scheduled flight.

You could take Wrights into Bettles and Brooks Range Aviation to the Killik, it's worth looking into IMO but that's your call.

cheap and Alaska don't match, even for residents.

But it keeps some riff raft out a bit I suppose.

Still no place I'd rather be. I'd eat bologna all day instead of a steak just to be here.

What's 3000 grand for a flight anyway? Really not that much in the end. I could afford that every year or so if I wanted it badly enough.

Awesome! So you wanna PayPal my bro and I 3K each?
