Mahalo for all of the info! I originally was aiming towards Chichagof because I have some friends that live in that area. The POW area though has always had my attention. The driving around part sounds more appealing and I can hike into different places rather just on foot only. I own a small business here in Hawaii so I'm all about putting money in the local economy.Population on POW is down, but residents on Chichagof are trying to make it off limits to non-federally qualified hunters because they say the same. You can rent a vehicle from DJ and drive all around and camp wherever. I am not sure Chichagof provides that freedom. If you have the time, wherewithal and don't mind driving and exploring, POW might be the one for you. Fly into Ketchikan and either take the ferry to Hollis and get your vehicle there ( you'll have to make reservations to have the vehicle dropped. There is nothing in Hollis) or fly over to Klawock using Island Air and pick up your vehicle there. Friendly community. Put a few bucks in the local community and enjoy the experience.
