    Ram aviation caribou- Mid-late August vs September

    One of the guys in our group reached out to Brian yesterday. This was his reply: "There was some talk about about closing season in 2024. I talked to biologist last week worse case they will shut down unit 23 but we can still hunt 26 and that's what we basically did last season. I was panicked...

    Ram aviation caribou- Mid-late August vs September

    Well, they sure didn't tell us that when we booked. Looks like we'll be calling for a refund.

    Ram aviation caribou- Mid-late August vs September

    We went 22 August 21. Groups ahead of us never saw a bull. Our group of 3 tagged out on our first day hunting. We had groups around us that never saw anything same week we were there. We got lucky that the migration was starting where we were. We've booked for 2024 a week later. Supposed to go...

    Late Post - RAM 2022 August

    Little late posting but we had a great experience with RAM. We went in on August 21. They warned us that a lot of the hunters already in the field weren't seeing much. We didn't see a single caribou on the flight in. First day of setting up and glassing, and still no caribou. The morning we...

    Based on RAM's Instagram they're doing just fine. Have posted several groups all with great bulls.

    Seekins or Fierce

    Over 2 year old thread but found it interesting. I bought a Carbon Rival Fierce 6.5PRC yesterday. Took it to the range today. Bolt won't close unless slammed shut then the brass won't come out. Had to jam a rod down the barrel to get the brass out. After forcing the bolt back open. Called...

    Weather averages for North of Brooks Range?

    We're flying out of Kotz on the 21st of August. What's a good spot to watch for that? Especially since we're going to be flying deeper in to get to the open land.

    Bow vs Rifle

    Looks like I'm taking a rifle then, he's kind of a POS.

    Shipping Meat/Cape from Kotz

    How do we get the Antlers to them in Anchorage? I think our layover is only about an hour and a half.

    Shipping Meat/Cape from Kotz

    I tried searching for some answers but didn't come up with much. We have a trip August 21-29 out of Kotz with RAM. What's the best way to get the meat and cape back home? You suggest ship it? Looking at a light weight cooler to check possibly. Any ideas would be great. Thanks

    Bow vs Rifle

    Haha good call!! I'm taking a pistol though, so I'll still have to mess with the TSA.

    Bow vs Rifle

    Thanks guys. My buddy is taking the exact same rifle and scope I use as well. So I'll have a back up if I do decide to go with the bow.

    Bow vs Rifle

    We're going with RAM in late August. I'm still torn between taking my bow or rifle. Is there enough cover for using a bow, and is the wind likely going to be too crazy for bow hunting?

    Alaskan Air credit card miles?

    I booked my flight to Kotzebue on Alaska miles. Same issue with wait times. But if you call you can leave your number and they'll call you back.
