    Success in Alaska

    Hey @Natekraft, I’m envious! I’m ready to go back and do it all again! We used the rental camp gear that RAM provided and I would absolutely go that route again. I totally understand why some folks would rather use their own tried and true gear, but for us it saved us so many logistical...

    Kotzebou hunters

    Thanks for sharing! 4 bomber bulls, that's awesome! Just out of curiosity, where did they fly you to? Did you just hunt state land in 23 or did they fly you into another unit? I flew with Bryan and RAM last year and had an amazing time and hunt. I agree with you that I wouldn't hesitate to...

    My 2021 Alaska Caribou

    @WI Shedhead I never had him scored or measured nor did I ever try to do it myself simply because no matter what he were to score, I wouldn't hesitate to pull the trigger on something similar. I look at him every day and think what an amazing, beautiful animal and am happy with the way he...

    My 2021 Alaska Caribou

    Wanted to share that I received a call from my taxidermist yesterday letting me know that my caribou was finished and that I could come pick it up! He's now home and up on the wall and I can't stop staring, LoL. He's bringing back all sorts of fun memories. I think he turned out perfect and...

    No, we didn't rent it. It was just there in the camp along with a couple of life jackets and paddles, provided by RAM for whoever wanted or needed to use it.

    Success in Alaska

    We were camped on the Noatak river which you would definitely need a raft to cross, and there was one in camp that RAM provided, but we never used it. Not sure on exact depth, but it appeared to be well above waist and even chest level and a pretty good current. In fact with all the rain last...

    Success in Alaska

    @Shooter2medic that's a great question, but one that's hard to answer because for each different scenario my favorite piece of equipment was something different. For example, on the days that the weather turned rainy and snowy my favorite piece of gear was my SKRE rain jacket and pants. At...

    Thank you all for the kind comments! It was indeed the trip of a lifetime. Hopefully it was the first of many and certainly not the last!

    RAM AVIATION 2019

    Our group also went mid September (13-19) this year, in fact our group came out of the field as Salty Heart's group went in. I would echo what he said, we saw low 30's and upper 20's as well.

    Success in Alaska

    Day 5 After breakfast we headed back out to get the antlers from the last 2 bulls. During the night the rain had turned to snow and we awoke to a truly Arctic sight....Snow on the tundra! Once everything was back in camp we spent time caping and skinning the heads and taking more pictures as...

    Day 4 Day 4 found us up early and glassing again for the remaining 2 tags. We headed up behind camp and started glassing. we immediately found a herd but it was across the river and heading the opposite way, we didn't see much else for a while so headed south along the river to another glassing...

    Success in Alaska

    Day 3 First thing in the morning we headed back up the hill to where I shot my caribou. Upon leaving the night before we put all the meat and quarters in game backs as well as the head and cape, wrapped them in a tarp and dragged them away from the carcass. However, during the night a grizzly...

    Success in Alaska

    Day 2 After a restless night thinking about the next morning and all the big bulls and herds of caribou we would see we woke up and got ready for the day. Our goal was to head up to the top of the big skyline ridge to the south of camp and glass. I'd learned two things preparing for this...

    Success in Alaska

    So I just got back from my first Alaskan caribou hunt and I have to say, it was everything and more that I hoped and dreamt it would be. We saw and experienced everything from incredible landscapes, moose, caribou, grizzlies, muskox, sun, snow, and even the northern lights during a rare, clear...
