My Last Remote AK Caribou Hunt

[AKBorn]

If you had to pick one week to hunt zone 2, what’s days would you pick?

My preference would be to fly in on August 29 or 30, hunt 6 days, and fly out on Sept 5 or 6 - these were the dates I used on almost all of my 40 Mile caribou hunts. The bugs never seem to be too thick when I flew in at the end of August, and the weather was getting nice for hunting. The moose season in that part of Alaska generally runs from September 8-17, so the 40 Mile flying days get pretty hectic starting around August 6 onward, when they start flying a lot of moose hunters into the field.
