Anyone around like to do a meet and greet lmk. Been known to buy a round or two. Also, anything worth seeing around town ? Probably be staying close to the airport. Tony

We kept a car at Agen's car storage place right next door as it was faster, cheaper and more convenient for the 21/2 - 3 hour, 150 mile drive to our place on the Kenai, than trying to puddle jump plane it, and still wind up 25 miles from home with no car. (Hey- it's MY post, OK? ). Especially arriving Anc at 10:30 -11 at night, after the commuter outfits quit flying for the day. Really, many of the new immigrant taxi drivers had no clue where Agen's was, or even "International Airport and Old Seward", but every one of them knew "ABC", long form - or just "Bush Co". As it happens we'll be passing thru Anchorage late on the 23rd for Montana, for a 2 am flight the 24, but I won't be sociable! Have a great hunt. Beautiful country! Last edited by las; 05/14/19.

I think the Bush Co. is on Whiskey row and at least worth a stroll around there. Moose Tooth Brewery and Pizza is worth a try.

But they have some exceptional taxidermy done by Robert Holshouser in there and it is worth checking out. The restaurants in there are nothing special. https://www.millenniumhotels.com/en...age/?cid=gplaces-the-lakefront-anchorage It is very close to the airport and right on Lake Hood, a very busy seaplane base.

The first thing he said to me was, "Hey, is there a place in Anchorage called Moose's Tooth"? When I told him yes and asked why, he said he had read an article earlier in the day that Moose's Tooth was the number one grossing boutique pizzeria in the US. I can see that it probably is, and when the brother in-law and sister in-law come to visit, we usually stop and eat there after picking them up from the airport. As far as Palmer Ale House, I can take it or leave it, as it seems to be hit or miss when the family and I go there. Of course they also have Eagle River Ale House and a new place in Anchorage as well.

Said when it came time to get hours the instructor told them that old so and so was going to give them a discount deal on a rental 172 to build hours. She sheepishly raised her hand and asked if it would be okay if she built hours in a 185 instead. When the instructor said he guessed so but why, she replied that she knew she’d need a plane if she was going to fly so she’d bought one, with cash!

Oil workers would buy a plane, take enough lessons to learn how to get it up in the air and then play around till they crashed them. At least that's the story I got from an old timer I used to know. He was a flight instructor in Fairbanks back in the day. "243/85TSX It's as if the HAMMER OF THOR were wielded by CHUCK NORRIS himself, and a roundhouse kick thrown in for good measure."

At least you picked a heavy bullet, I"d have gone mono but thats a personal thing mostly. Good luck. Will be waiting on the pictures. Have only seen tracks here in Talkeetna so far.

Picked one bullet off the hide, behind the off-side shoulder. He rolled about 50 yards down a ridge and dropped dead. Both shots took out vitals and penetrated 3ft of grizz. Both shots were about 3 inches apart 300 rum, 200 Accubonds, 3150mv Both bullets recovered were perfect mushrooms Last edited by hicountry; 06/04/19.

OP hicountry Campfire Tracker Joined: Apr 2003 Posts: 6,070 Northern Virginia	Thanks Art, it's was an epic adventure. Took him on day 7. We saw in total, 7 bears....2 boars, 2 sows and 3 cubs. Both boars were huge, sows were 7 footers. We found this boar while watching a sow and cub They were calmly feeding, then the sow went on full alert and ran partway up a mtn. She kept looking down at something at the bottom of the mtn. We moved to a better vantage point, and saw him lying on top of a small knoll at the bottom of a mtn. We stalked on a ridge, opposite the knoll the boar was on, accross a valley. Because of the wind, we couldn't get any closer to the bear. We ranged him at 340. I found a nice big rock, with a flat top to sit behind. Rolled up my hat and placed it under the forend. Cranked up the scope to 10x and settled in. Honestly, it was like sitting on a bench rest. Cross hairs were Rock solid. Bear was qtr away from me. I turned to the guide and said I can make this shot, no problem....he said go for it. So it setup, aiming so the the bullet would end up on the off side shoulder, and squeezed one off. The bear lurched forward, and I let another one go. He the stood up, and started swatting at his left shoulder, stumbled,and rolled down the knoll he was on. Somewhere in there I let #3 go. When he got to the bottom of the knoll, he was wobbly, and I let #4 go, and he dropped and didn't move. First 2 shots were perfect, one we found under the skin on the off side shoulder, the second probably ended up near the front of his chest. #3 was a miss, #4 went through his rear legs and broke one. Basically, he was dead after the first 2 shots, but I kept the 300rum barking until he stopped moving ! I'll post pics of the 200ABs I recovered, but they performed perfectly, and looked like something out of an Nosler advertisement.

Have not used them on a bear yet, wondered if they would "splash" if they hit something too hard. Probably would be fine, just made me wonder after reading a couple stories on the interweb.

You did it just right sir! Congratulations! . I personally have near zero interest in proactively shooting a brown/griz - but if you're going to do it, that's the way! And darned good shooting! Congratulations on a fine bear and a great experience. Looking forward to the mount pics. Well done! The only true cost of having a dog is its death.
