Plan on doing a daily journal that I will post when we come back out...
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

Have you thought about renting a spotter? It could save some serious coin.

What pack are you going to be running?

People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

You can't fly with isobutane fuel. Your Jetboil isn't going to work. You'll need to look into stoves that use alternative fuels. I would also get good backpacking or mountaineering boots. Regular hiking or hunting boots probably won't cut it.

Good luck, should be lots of fun. This is a dream hunt for me. Pretty cool that you get to share it with your wife. Take lots of pics, and be sure to tell us all about it when you get back.

I've flown before with my jetboil? Small plane that wont be going over 1500'. Not sure if that matters...

Here's a thread you may want to read in it's entirety. Bottom line, talk to your air taxi to find out what is legal.

My info could be wrong. I've never done this hunt, but I've been researching them for a while. That is what I was told by an outfitter.

Congrats!  I'm super jealous!  Make this hunt fun and take too many pics, and share too many photos, because it might feel like too much at the time, but later you'll be grateful.  I'm excited for this.

Glad to hear that someone drew some special permits for AK as I sure didn't draw any of my permits. Oh well always another year.
