AK Sheep, Population Observations

I was out playing on Saturday and crossed paths with one of those rams being packed out. I congratulated the hunters, but have to admit I was pretty jealous. I'm sitting at 17 and 0 on the draw for that hunt.

AK Sheep, Population Observations

It may be a very sensitive topic, but I believe it is time to start prioritizing harvest opportunities for Alaskan residents. To be clear I'm not advocating for eliminating non-resident opportunities, but to my knowledge we are the only western state that doesn't limit the allocation of...

WSA 22-02 affects Sheep hunters in GMU 24A and 26B (Dalton Hwy Corridor)

I am grateful for the information shared on this situation as it may affect my planned hunt for this year. Does anyone have any insight into when a decision might be announced? Hopefully it will be sooner rather than later as we are already at the 90 day window. I'm already working on...

The Last Ram

Thank you for sharing the great story. Congratulations on both the sheep and the good fortune to draw DCUA twice! I'm 18 and 0 on that draw, but I've been lucky enough to assist friends who have drawn it, Beautiful country if you can survive the windstorms. Again, thank you and congrats!

Borah Bivy with foorless tent?

Borah Bivy with foorless tent?

Thanks for the advice guys. Sounds like I can save a few ounces and not add a ground cloth.

Borah Bivy with foorless tent?
