Yes it was a blast im ready to go back already!!!!!

We flew to fairbanks and got some supplies. Rented a u-haul van. Much cheaper. Then drove half way to our bush plane pickup point. Slept in van. Next morning headed up haul road towards Coldfoot. We arrived at Prospect creek airport and meet the pilots friend. We used Bushwacker air. One of the safest pilots around. Almost too safe.Flew out next day one at a time me and my son. Pretty slow at first. Saw everything but Caribou. Saw 6 moose,a lynx, snow shoe hairs,a griz, Finally on almost the last day the caribou started puring in by the thousands. My son shot his first, Then i got mine the next day. My son shot his down by the river. Mine was up high on ridge. Lots of fun for sure.  Was hoping to catch a greyling but the rivers were too high and cloudy. Caught alot of pike thou. We where flown out 145miles into the bush. Wierd seeing that plane fly away....will try to add some more pics
