    Cordova, AK goats

    Lol… “best drainages” … Here’s my advice. Goats are all over mainland PWS. It shouldn’t take you long to find some if you put a little effort into glassing through a feeding cycle or two. The challenge becomes finding one in accessible terrain, being able to put a stalk on it, then being able...

    Fierce firearms carbon fury/rival

    To follow back up on this, I did get ahold of their Service guy after a couple days of trying. He said the cause was likely that some particles got stuck in alongside the extractor and the inner part of the bolt, and changed angle of it a bit which caused excessive wear and for the extractor...

    Holster options for G20 with light

    NW Retention builds the Scout chest holster made to order, all kinds of color combos and able to accommodate different lights. I like them over Gunfighters Kenai because they have a screw used to adjust the draw tension installed. To my knowledge the Kenai still does not, and the Kydex will...

    Looking For A Partner For A Drop Caribou Hunt

    Stereotype much? ;) I have plenty of "real deal" friends local to me who get after it.

    things NOT to take on a guided hunt

    Thanks for this tidbit. How about the Central AK Range? Were you able to do any aerial surveys there?

    Sold Semi Custom 7 rem mag, manners, hart

    He posted a pic with the rifle on the scale. Bump for a beautiful rifle that looks like a tack driver. This is a little heavy and long for my needs and preference in a mountain rifle role, otherwise it would be very tempting! GLWS

    Fierce firearms carbon fury/rival

    Interesting to hear about some others experiences with a busted extractor. I took my Carbon Fury to the range a few times over the past month to practice for a bear hunt. I started noticing an issue once rounds started failing to eject completely, although the bolt would still pull them back...

    Alaska 20 e subsistence

    I'm not sure if I'm interpreting your question correctly, or maybe I'm making the assumption you are looking into 20E just because of it's close (ish) proximity to Delta Junction? If so, I'll just add that a lot of AK Residents travel all over the state or to the various ranges for sheep...

    Guided Sheep Hunt - packing list and weight critique

    Another idea to help with the bugs is to spray your clothes/hat with permethrin before you go. That doesn't cost any weight penalty!

    Guided Sheep Hunt - packing list and weight critique

    Nice job on creating this list with weights! Here's my thoughts, it looks good overall though. I would ditch the Kenai insulated jacket. If you need to block the wind use your rain jacket. Or if you need a little more warmth when hiking over your lighter layers, use the rain jacket and open...

    What to do in Alaska in April

    At this rate with the warm temps we’re having, you could hike Turnagain Arm Trail and it wouldn’t be too snowy/muddy. It’s one of the first around Anchorage to dry out since it’s south facing. The actual Turnagain Arm Trail is a traverse that gains some elevation then follows the Seward Highway...

    Alaska Winter Kill

    I don't see where DF&G has cancelled any of the 20A Any bull moose tags yet? Is that a rumor you heard that will be announced soon? You seem to be well connected to the DF&G in the Interior so I don't doubt that info, but I just haven't seen anything formally announced yet. I do see the...

    Pre-scout Afognak or DCUA

    If I understand your first post correctly, you were setting aside a week for the actual DCUA sheep hunt in August, not just a week to scout. My recommendation would be to bump that to a minimum of 10 days, and up to 14 days would be even better. Of course you could pull it off solo in a week...
