Thanks Vern, we're really looking forward to it! We'd be very happy with stragglers and small groups to keep us busy. Anything more would be a bonus, but the best part will just being in that country.
Are those zones the normal summer grounds for the herd and they have just not started moving yet? We are flying out with 40 Mile on the 18th and curious about the "normal" movement patterns. Yeah, I know - nothing normal about caribou LOL.
It will be what it will be, and hoping for a good...
Last half of Sept out of Tok snow is very possible. You'll very likely have overnight temps below freezing at least some nights, and I'd certainly be prepared for the possibly of substantially colder than that. Extreme winds are also possible. A few years ago we had 3 solid days of 50-60 mph...
Cleaning the skull will likely be the hardest part. I won't have a way to boil it, and I know getting it clean enough to fly with is going to be a lot of work, especially the brain cavity. Any tips or suggestions are appreciated! If I can't get it clean enough for a full euro I'll just have...
I'll be headed to AK the last part of August and am assuming that caribou will still be in velvet if I'm lucky enough to get one. Unless it would be something truly special I'm planning on a euro mount. Most likely would need to strip velvet and then have the antlers stained by a taxidermist...
Haven't hunted Newfoundland, but moose are basically deer. Keep the wind in your favor. If it's not in your favor "scent control" products aren't going to do much for you.
I have one of the old Flambeau Comandalope decoys.
Had forgotten how good this thing looks. I did shoot a nice buck over the top of it years ago.

Ingredients vary. Most have lean venison burger as part of them. Canned chicken in others. Then sauces, vegis, etc. I did take a couple out today and will let them sit for a couple of weeks before trying them.
How long will DIY dehydrated meals safely store in the freezer? I've read some things that say 6 months. But I have a bunch of last falls leftovers that were made last summer, stored in the freezer until early September, then back in the freezer since the end of September. I've got an...
I'm in a similar situation. The majority of my whitetail hunting is done here on my own property. I have ladders or hang ons pretty much everywhere I need them plus some ground brush blinds in strategic spots. I really looked in to saddles primarily for the occasional out of state hunt where...
