One way to cut cost would be to drive up there. My ex and I went on a caribou hut for our honeymoon, drove to Anchorage and flew in from Willow. It is an easy three day drive for two people and we only took two on the way home. Had the meat frozen up there and packed it in insulated (1" foam from Home depot) U-haul boxes. We still had to wait a couple days for the boned out meat to thaw enough to process.
