My 2024 Dall Pack LIst
I’m not sure if your outfitter gave you a list of what to bring but if this is a chopper hunt in the NWT I would think they would be supplying a lot of what you are bringing and they will ask you to leave a lot at base camp to save on weight and space in the chopper, so why even take it in the... -

Fairbanks to Dawson Drive best layover point
Thanks, all of this is good info. Knowing the Motel name will be good when I finally do my bookings and can look for them on Expedia. So far flights don’t look too bad and surprised to find an F150 is the cheapest “car” rental. Just need to finalize exact travel dates and I’ll be locking in. -

Fairbanks to Dawson Drive best layover point
Yes, the hunt is August 30th to September 10th. When I looked at a satellite map of the TOK area I saw Fast Eddies, and TOK in general appeared to be a larger town with more amenities. The only advantage to Chicken is it would get me farther along to my destination and fairly close to the... -

Fairbanks to Dawson Drive best layover point
I’ll be going to Dawson City via Fairbanks and looking for suggestions or pros and cons on where to layover. Since I’ll probably be arriving in Fairbanks in early afternoon, the outfitter thought it may be a good idea to get a few hours of driving time under my belt after I arrive in Fairbanks... -

Favorite Sheep Caliber
I used a 6.5-300 weatherby this year in the Titanium version weighing in at 6.5lbs. I used 140 grain Accubonds and the Sheep never reacted at the first shot and guide thought I missed so I hit him again. after second shot he walked about 20 yards and the guide was saying to shoot again when... -

Friction and Hot spots
I’ve worn Polypropylene liner socks for the last few years with no issues until training this summer for an upcoming sheep trip. After a week or so of training I developed one heal blister and immediately used Leukotape and bandaids. Things seems OK for a few days and the blister was mostly... -

Freshman Class of 2023- who is in it?
Thanks for the words of encouragement, your reasoning mimics mine exactly that I have no guarantees for the future. I am trying to keep a clean and lean diet because I have found in the past losing 10 or more pounds with diet along in just a few weeks isn’t that difficult. I am doing my PT... -

Freshman Class of 2023- who is in it?
By the way, I am trying to do some minor training so I don’t completely atrophy away. I am doing leg presses and leg curls because it seems I can do almost any exercise as long as I am not standing and putting weight or compression on my spine/right leg. My PT therapist gave me the go ahead on... -

Freshman Class of 2023- who is in it?
I have not spoken to him since he is already in the bush and I probably wouldn’t be able to reach him. Plus I have other trips booked for next year at the same time. And lastly, he agreed to hold my price close to my original booking price even though most outfitters have risen their Covid... -

Freshman Class of 2023- who is in it?
The above post was from Nov 2022 and I’m just looking for any recommendations or comments on my present situation. I started training and I was walking about 8 miles 2 or 3 times a week back in March and I figured I was on my way to my first sheep hunt. At the end of April I was hit with what... -

Household income/age at time of first guided sheep hunt
I’ll be 63 on my first sheep hunt this fall. I retired 2 years ago and I’m living off SS aand minimal withdrawals from investments. But this years and next years sheep hunts are being paid out of net worth. This spring I went on a Brown Bear hunt to AK on a cancellation and booked it the same... -

Calgary/Edmonton Denver flight travel question
Well, there is always the possibility of driving the entire way to Fort Simpson. That was my original intention when I booked the trip and I was going to cross into Canada in North Dakota which should have been a breeze. It would have been a nice way to see the country and I figured would have... -

Calgary/Edmonton Denver flight travel question
Thanks again, I didn’t realize that was something that needed to be taken care of before the flight and I didn’t know there was a CBP office near me. I’ll have to look into that and get that taken care of after I decide on which rifle I’ll be taking
