Starting the walk in Hopes are high for a big sheep score Kifaru High Camp with bikini frame LH lid with all extra straps cut off. Rifle in a side pocket, and waist belt has a couple of UL pockets. It worked out well, but under heavy load the frame dug into my back Nice weather for the walk -

Back from the Brooks: Success
Guys (and Gals), I am just starting to unwind after the hunt in the Brooks. I had a wonderful time. As always, I come away from one of these guided hunts with enormous respect for those of you that can do it on your own. This is my 5th Dall sheep hunt, and I've harvested 4 rams, and I think... -

Back from the Brooks: Success
I thoroughly enjoyed myself in the great state of Alaska. The guides, pilots, people, and scenery (and mosquitos) all were spectacular. I connected with this nice one on day four of our hunt. Right time/right place 420 yards, .260 Remington with 139gr Lapua Scenar's were instantly fatal. The one... -

Sleep Challenged before the big hunt?
Don't see that on the iPad every day Well, a little complication has come up. Saturday morning I woke up with a temp of 101 (man that wipes me out). Ironically I'm an ENT doc, and you can be sure I've taken every med I think could help. It's been work, sleep Tylenol/Advil, for five days, and... -

How do you afford it?
My upbringing would never have prepared me to shell out money like a sheep trip costs. I credit an office manager that I've had for 20 years that told me to just do it. Of course having the right wife has also helped. With that said, she (wife) reminds me of the fab vacations that we could be... -
Yet another pick my pack list apart thread !

Sleep Challenged before the big hunt?
By the way, my post started at 5am, but after writing far too much, I hit the "post" button, the screen went blank. All my "verbal diarrhea", all my witty words, all went away. I noticed that there is an "auto saved" function, and I did a Google search to see how that works. When I tried it, I... -
Sleep Challenged before the big hunt?
I'm leaving Thursday morning, and I've reached that stage of preparation where everything is weighed, packed. I'm finding myself waking up (4am), thinking of the hunt and going to sleep, same. In this case, counting sheep is NOT helping. You'd think I'd get better at this, you know, more calm... -
July 28 - E. Brooks Range Report
Thanks so much for sharing. It's so difficult for a guy from Atlanta, like me, to imagine the weather and terrain. I'll be there next Thursday, and those pictures sure whet my appetite. Don -
