    Alaska DIY Caribou Hunt - Arctic Air

    You are one of those "glass is half full" type of individuals. I applaud you on your success in spite of what happened to you. However deceptive business practices need to be shared, so others who are not as forgiving as you, don't get taken advantage of. As you stated there was no truth in...

    Unit 23/Kotzebue

    I called the AC store yesterday and was told a canister of propane was $8-9. Pretty pricey but necessary.

    Alaska DIY Caribou Hunt - Arctic Air

    I would share my experience with a new post here on Rokslide and as many hunting forums as i could find to let people know exactly how your experience with Arctic Air played out. I would also notify Alaska Fish and Game and register a complaint. Hopefully your bad experience will dissuade other...

    Unit 23/Kotzebue

    Leaving San Antonio Monday afternoon it will be 102*, and I will be wearing shorts, t-shirt and sandals. In that attire I will probably cause the locals to send the guys in white coats to pick up the "nut" case.

    Alaska travel

    I have a test scheduled for 1130am before I fly out at 4pm on a Monday. If something would screw that up then I guess I fork over $250 the next day at the airport. I called and sent a message to the Ted Stevens Airport to verify the testing hours. If they shut down at 5pm seems that really...

    Alaska travel

    I leave San Antonio at 4pm on Monday afternoon. I arrive at ANC at 950pm Alaska time. I think the airport testing is already closed by that time. I spend the night in a hotel then return the next morning for my flight on to Kotz. Maybe I can take the test when I return to the airport. I don't...

    How do the results come to you, text, email? If I fly out on a Monday afternoon do these tests have to be picked up on a Friday afternoon or can they be picked up on a Saturday morning?

    Tundra Camp Site Question

    My question for you Alaska experienced veterans is this. How do you pick a good camping site in the middle of the tundra? I am doing a 3 man caribou DIY hunt out of Kotzebue in unit 23 starting the 1st of Sept. Our flight service uses tundra wheels so I figure the landing zone will likely be...
