    Anchorage Photography Spots

    For a single day you will be pretty limited. The Turnagain Arm would fill a few of those subjects with a possibility of moose around Potter Marsh, Dall sheep along the mountains starting shortly after that, beautiful ocean and mountain views, possibility of Beluga whales along the arm, eagles...

    Gloves for cold weather photography, hunting, etc.

    Up until two weeks ago ours was really bad too, but it came with a vengence. Lots of snow and pretty cold temps are back in the great white north. And these have been working out awesome!

    Gloves for cold weather photography, hunting, etc.

    I found these a while back and finally decided to give them a shot. My wife and I have always had poor circulation in our hands and feet so it has been a struggle to find gloves that work for us. TheHeatCompany.us is a layered glove system. We generally dress in layers up here to keep warm so it...

    Anyone Using Tactacams?

    I just picked one up for my long range, high power Air rifle and my bow. It will likely be a bit before I get to do a lot of testing because of my job, but I did quite a bit of research and watched all the youtube videos I could before I made a decision. I think it will be the perfect complement...

    Check out this beast!

    Nice! That is a dream tag! Is your brother in Alaska? If so I can take him on a flight through the area prior to the hunt. Always good to get an idea of access routes and terrain prior to the hunt.

    How Old Where You When You Got Your Sheep?

    44 on my first one and now 46 on this years! It's never to late. And both those were solo trips.

    My 2016 Solo Dall Ram

    The last two seasons flying myself and my daughter into our hunts has definitely been the pinnacle for me. We have spent some amazing quality time together. My wife is next with her moose hunt in a few weeks!

    Alaska caribou hunt

    Looks like a great hunt! And to be able to bring the kids is the icing!

    Snyd, that is a beautiful ram too! I think if I ever shot a full curl double broomer I would just hunt them with a camera after that... Not much of a way to top it! Definitely not! ;-)

    Check out this beast!

    It is not a subsistence ram. Was in a draw area. His bases are only barely over 13" but he carries that out a long ways. His smallest circumference measurement its 8"

    My 2016 Solo Dall Ram

    This year I set out on my second solo sheep hunt even after I told myself that I would never hunt sheep solo again... I have been in Alaska for 10 years now and got the sheep hunting bug 5 years ago. In that time I have gone on 6 sheep hunts. Four of them were with hunting partners and during...

    Check out this beast!

    Check out this ram a friend of mine just harvested here in Alaska. He was definitely on his last year on this planet. The biologist aged him at 15 years old, he had no front teeth left at all, and he was withered down to about nothing. He was broomed off 6-8 inches or more and was still past...

    Spotting Scope for sheep

    I picked up a Razor 65mm last year before sheep season and have used it on numerous hunts now. You won't regret that choice. A hunting partner an I compared it to his swaro hd and there is so little difference for half the price, and that was only in real low light.

    Solo Dall Sheep hunt

    The best piece of equipment I used was my plane... ;-) Without that none of it would have happened! Clothing was Sitka Gear primarily and it has held up to 5 sheep hunts and two goat hunts with no noticeable wear. Boots were Kennetreks and so far they are the most comfortable and durable boot I...

    Solo Dall Sheep hunt

    I decided a year and a half ago that if I was going to retire from the military in Alaska that I needed to get my pilots license. I bought this plane and have just hit 315 hours behind the stick this week. This was the first time I have been able to fly myself in for a hunt and it took lots of...

    Solo Dall Sheep hunt

    Thank you! I built that gun almost 25 years ago. Has a custom, 2lb trigger, glass bedding, floated barrel, and the inlays that I built to widen the grip a little. I have made some great shots with that over the years and have no clue how many whitetails and antelope I have taken over the years...
