Have long enjoyed reading the posts and looking at the pictures so I figured it was high time I signed on. I also pulled this tag in the draw with 11 points - it was #1 on my bucket list. Fall asleep every night dreaming of bugling bulls. Have been in the unit half a dozen times tagging along on...
LAST EDITED ON Jun-25-14 AT 10:25PM (MST)[p]Good plan. Alaska Air miles are golden. Your transporter has a solid reputation. I liked the drive from Fairbanks to Happy Valley but you would need to rent a vehicle. Ankle fit hip boots. Thermocell. Pack rod for grayling.
If your looking for an adventure then driving from Anchorage to the haul road would be one. For hunting, it would be hit or miss I would say. You can see some caribou and try to ambush them with your boy but that is some wide open country and the odds are low. There will also be alot of other...

Been hunting tracking what's going on in this unit for the last few years but we've since gone in another direction. There are some goats on the walk-in areas but numbers have fallen way off in the last couple years with that big winter kill. This unit has a lot of BLM land but most of it is...
If you have the coins, cooperative wildlife management unit hunts in Utah are virtually a sure bet for a great once-in-a-lifetime hunt to take home a trophy bull.
