AK Draw Results

[Ray]

If I recall a drunken conversation from this last christmas, if nobody in the group drew a sheep tag, then we walk in to someplace in the Wrangles or the slope. Wish my buddy hadn't broken is plane to a point he can't afford to fix it. I need to get busy...but there is the potential for a group nelchina trophy caribou hunt as three of us were drawn.

I only put in for Musk Ox. No tag.

I'm bear hunting this spring with my son before he heads off to college, and will deer hunt on Kodiak if I don't draw my AZ elk tag.

Nothing for me - haven't drawn anything in the last decade except for a single caribou permit.

But I'm not complaining too much - I've drawn DCUA 3 times total.

Two of my good buddies drew DS204 (DCUA) party. Lucky bastards!

Well I'll go ahead and play. The draw Gods were on my side this year! Most excited about heading back to the Emerald island looking for a big ol boar! Next will be any bull moose on a fairly local river and finally a caribou tag in unit 13. God AK is an awesome place. Feeling very blessed today! DB237,DM540 and DC485

Thanks Greg! It looks like you will be having a busy fall as well!

No Sheep but did draw DG720 and DB249 Spring Zachar Bay Brown Bear.

I also drew DB249 tag!

I'll be heading back across the matanuska river to chase sheep again. Hurry up August!

Sounds like a number of you guys drew some great tags this year! Congrats! I'm at the mercy of my BIL so hopefully he's willing to use some of his precious vacation time to take me mtn goat hunting. I've been fortunate to draw some great tags the last few years! Good luck to everyone that drew!

14a sheep early season and as an extra bonus 20a caribou. I feel like I won the lottery. I was shaking so bad when I saw results I had to sit down. First time I've pulled a tag. My wife probably won't see me this August.
Pulling these tags gave me motivation to finally get signed up on the site. Been a creeper for too many years!

 

[Yellowknife]

Which 14A tag did you draw? I used to hunt that back before it was draw.

20A holds some of the most biggest caribou bulls I've ever seen. They are spread fairly thin, but I've watched quite a few walk while wishing I had that tag!

 

[Molon Labe]

290. My sister lives up there and is part mountain goat.
Our plan was to take a borrowed raft across mat and hike up.
Yellow-if you have any advice I will listen to whatever you suggest. Not sure if I can get PMs yet.
For the caribou tag I am guessing we will need to fly in.
Still in shock and have so much research to do still.

 

[Yellowknife]

Can't help with DS290. Haven't been into those drainages. 20A caribou is usually best as a fly-in, but can be hunted both via hiking in and ATV to some degree. If you want to fly in, you need to be booking it ASAP... transporter options are limited in the interior.

Delta Sheep, flying in. Very excited. Time to start kicking through my gear, making new additions and losing a few pounds.

 

[Molon Labe]

Thanks. Any transporter suggestions?

 

[Yellowknife]

Thanks. Any transporter suggestions?

Wrights out of Fairbanks is the easy answer for someone coming from out of state. There are a few others, but Wrights is good.

Not kidding about booking ASAP if that's the way you want to go though.

 

[todd h]

I drew ds206 / mount harper

 

[acmckeage03]

Hey USMC99, I drew the tag as well! It'll also be mine and my buddies first trip. Would you want to go over equipment? Idk how much you know of the area? What air service are you using? We are most likely flying in with Mike Meekin

 

[Colby Jack]

Pulled unit 13 Caribou. Nothing special except that it's my first tag in 20yrs of applying, so pretty stoked!!!
