On the flight in from a drop hunt last fall I asked our pilot if he could set up a summer trip. My wife is a teacher and thus has not been able to see “my Alaska” on fall trips.

I gave her the trip for Christmas. We went the last week of July. 5 days dropped in the western Alaska Range, then a few days in Homer doing tourist stuff.

We had a great trip. She loved it. Highly recommend for any of you that are similarly blessed with an adventurous partner.

The stress and cost of a deal like this is way lower for the passenger and the transporter compared to hunting season.

Yes there were bugs. No they weren’t an issue. We both had head nets but never put them on. We did use a Thermacell around camp.
