Love it. Pathfinder reports are always a good read. Sounds like an epic hunt with a lifetime of memories for all. I have a few trips on my radar in the coming years with my kids and I will certainly re-read these for ideas!

Awesome! I stayed in that same place in dead horse, still have the ice cream machine? 

Yes, they do.  LP made good use of it, but honestly, their dessert table was more dangerous for me.  Cheesecake every night.

Really great story!  I might be getting too soft, after reading all those challenges, I can take Alaska caribou off my wish list!!  Tough guy hunt physically and mentally for sure!!  Congrats, on the hunt, but mostly, being an awesome dad!

They spelled Little Pathfinder wrong 

Great story and sounds like a great hunt!  Thanks for taking us along.   The tundra up there gives the legs a workout.  Until you have experienced it it is tough to explain to someone.

Agreed!  It never looks bad in the YouTube Videos.  Mushy ground... so what...
Stop being a wuss...

There is some real value in seeing how your kids react in tense/stressful situations.  On our 2016 caribou hunt my older son got lost.  Him finding his way out of that by overcoming panic and using his head made me feel a lot better about sending him off to college on his own.  On this trip we had to chase grizzlies out of camp.
It's a good feeling to have raised boys that know how to handle themselves.
