How often do you see ptarmigan?

We saw two or 3 on our hunt

We saw them about every day of the trip. Didn't seem to be a rhyme or reason to when or where. Randomly would walk up on them.

That’s cool! I guess we need to consider that!

We ended up eating ptarmigan almost every night we were there. My hunting buddy seemed to like them much more than freeze dried meals and I wasn’t complaining either. Our magic meal ratio for two people was 5 ptarmigan breasted and thigh meat, one medium potatoes and a medium onion. We’d cut the breasts into strips, marinate them in fajita marinade, then cook them down with the onions and potatoes.

It’s definitely worth taking a .22 pistol imo.

Is this a doable hunt solo

One person can do this trip, though it depends entirely on who the person is. Honestly if you’re asking, probably not.
