PS: I'm going to save this to a file, so handy. I have a bad habit of forgetting where I saw something.

Wow Thanks for the great information. My wife and I went in 1996 and hunted the Mulchaatna herd. It was hard to decide which animal to shoot. The bulls seemed to keep themselves behind cows. We stayed in the tent the first three days of our five day hunt because of fog.

The only true cost of having a dog is its death.

KC's advice is priceless for anyone attempting to do it themselves but as others have pointed out, prices and game patterns and numbers change over the years. Make sure to do your homework and talk with the local AK F&G biologist in the region and as many of the local air taxi services as you can. And then realize that there is a lot of physical work involved at every step of the process.

A lot of relevant information contained herein.
I've been so overwhelmed with fake news that I'm now nuts. Let's go Brandon
