We did well, it was a solid hunt. Seemed like eveyday we were packing meat/antlers back to camp. Both of us filled our caribou/reindeer and deer tags. The group at Seahawk Air were great to work with.

Question for the guys that have been on a Kodiak trip (and I should probably research this myself, but read the reports and thought I’d just ask). Does a non-resident need to have a guide or Alaskan resident present on these hunts or can you diy it complete on your own?

Heard there was a lot of winter kill but it looks like you guys did pretty well. Were you hunting the North end
of the island or South end?
