They wouldn't allow us to take pictures. They did email us thier approved pics.

I take it you weren't on public lands
correct. all land up here belongs to the corporations (Inupiaq tribes)

That is cool.  Look at the whole in that thing.

 :yeah: did you happen to hear what caliber?

Looks like an 88 Winchester!  .243, 308, 284 or 358.  I'd guess .243 or .308 :dunno:
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."

Very Cool and thanks for the post.  I'm pretty sure you cannot hunt or posess any polar bear in the U.S. c/o the Marrine Mammal Protection act or the CITES agreement or a combination of both.   I imagine it is a different deal for the Natives and/or DLP circumstances.
