Is $2750 really the final price?  Or do most of your clients end up paying additional flight fees and whatnot?  I guess my question is, what is the average amount that most of your clients really end up paying?

Our flight from Spokane to Deadhorse is $1320.  Tags are $650 for the Caribou tag, $60 for the wolf tag and $230 for the hunting lic, which includes 7 days of fishing.  Toss in a few extra items for camp rental items and our food and it's going to run us a little under $5000 each for our group of 4.

I recognize that there are ancillary costs, I'm just wondering if there are any additional fees that North Star charges or does $2750 really get you the whole shebang.  It's a sweet deal if it does

For our trip that included the camp cost.  We added a couple of things like a raft to get back and for across the river if need be and a propane tank.  Otherwise it covers everything else.

Dealt with Ryan last year and his prices were pretty much all inclusive after we got there.  He supplied everything that he said he would.
