Clorox wipes will give you a burn. Real wake up feeling.
Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with too many facts.

I'm not sure but aren't different areas of Alaska different rules on what's a legal ram? What's a "legal" ram where you are going?

I think traumatized is the word form what he was telling me of his last trip. Inland bears seem to be more nasty then the coastals from the locals I know up in AK.

don't tell me that!!!! The fence was supposed to be for our base camp stash but now I'm gonna have to bring a second  :bash: I STILL sleep sitting up with a glock 20 in each hand mumbling "get outta here bear, get outta here bear" and wake my wife up every three hours for her watch shift :chuckle: :bdid:

Forgive my ignorance on Dall Sheep hunting, I am just tagging along because it sounds friggin amazing and you make stories interesting. And to ask one question

wake my wife up every three hours for her watch shift :chuckle: :bdid:

How is that going to work out for ya  :dunno:

 :chuckle:

Seriously though, this sound like an incredible trip!

Are those Altra brand shoes in the photo? Stadium steps are a great training option. Good luck on the adventure.

haha.  My wife would be a lot meaner than a grizz if I did that  :chuckle: was a little inside joke with actionshooter. We were on Kodiak last fall about the same time and our group had a rough spot in regards to bears. We had to sleep in shifts they were so relentless.

yes sir lone peak 5's. Really love them.  The wide toe box is great for keeping a good grip on the trail.

Saw the wide toe box in your photo and just had to ask. Perfectly designed for your   fitness sessions hiking trails. Since walking into an outdoor store and seeing them, I live in Altra. Switched from heavy leather boots and been wearing Lone Peak 3 hightops for hunting. Surprised how well they handle rocky terrain.
