Just found out M drew an any bull tag in the Alphabets and the same caribou tag Riley and I drew...
So 2 moose, 3 caribou, and 1 Kodiak bear tags. Does that mean the whining is done?

None for me. Looks like it's deer, haul road caribou, and a registration goat.

At least its not a Ruger! I'm trying to corner that market! But, for all the hunting I've done lately, I could've just used an A-bolt.

Yep, that's what I was thinking. F&G could do the same thing as last year, and that is let the draw tag hunters hunt wherever they want in unit 13 like last year. Over 6-7 trips last fall, I was in unit 13 for about a month total. Saw caribou everywhere, but all scattered. I'll be up there again next weekend for 2-3 days looking for another one for my brother. He has a tier 1 tag burning a hole in his pocket.

LOL, you won't be catching me in the woods, or anyplace else, with an A-bolt.
Art just likes pinging me about my Rugers, and I know he's in love with A-bolts. :-)

I'm unsure about "love", but he do have a *thing* for them.

I have lots of Rugers... Just love to jerk a little chain when it is laying in easy reach.
My lone A-Bort is here to stay... that means "not get used" in simpler terms...

Well, I just got the subusistence tag, RC566 I believe no other drawings. I have heard about a possible new draw for next season here on base, so I have to get my bow cert out of the way. and apply.

I got squat. Everyone that I know that I checked got squat. I didn't check Marcus Deedee tho..., Doc always draws something... up to 5 one year. Ted and Elaina Spraker both got squat. Guess that busts the conspiracy theory. Sure glad I'm a "subsistence hunter" at present....

Just took a close look at that hunt area and it is obviously designed for the Eureka Redneck Crowd... It is such a short hop to get there from Talkeetna that it might be a reasonable place to look for a moose and a 'bou reasonably priced...

I don't know how I got this tag (DC481). I don't think I put in for it. Must be a fat finger mistake on my part. I thought I was putting in for Area 13 along the Denali Hwy.
The area is in 13A north of the Black River and west of the Oshetna and 13E south of the Susitna.
Anybody have any knowledge of that area?
Jim That is swamp buggy country for sure... Or fly in... As a good friend says There is no way in hell anyone will cross the black river on a wheeler...
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

And the Oshetna can be tough to cross as well, especially if we get rain like we did last fall.
That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.
