I have a strange question for anyone that has hunted with 40 mile air or in the area they fly into for Caribou. A group of 4 of us have our first ever Alaska hunt scheduled with Tok Air, for August 12-20th and we are flying out of Tok. All of us are geared up for lightweight backcountry pack in hunts but the kicker is 3 of us use Hammocks. We Typically hunt in Colorado, Utah & New Mexico & can always find a few trees to hang in. I know Alaska has a lot of Tundra and everyone we spoke with has said the Hammocks won't work (Although I don't think any of them quite understood what kind of Setups were using). Anyway, Every picture I see of the area we are flying into has Trees in the picture, lots of them.. I know it would probably be foolish to carry the hammocks and then realize we won't be able to use them. It's just hard knowing the $$$ we have invested in these hammocks, under quilts, etc etc and won't be about to use them. Then to turn around & have to buy something else for us to stay in. I'm Leaning towards a Seek Outside Tipi & stove.. What are your thoughts?
