Dalton hiway AKA haul rd

(1/5) > >>

Hoytshooter:
anyone ever hunted caribou on the hiway up there in alaska.  Just curious Im heading up on the 17th of August and was wondering what it would be like.

high country:
check out alaska outdoors directory and pristine ventures website forums. if you plan on renting a rig there are very few that will let you on the haul road, also there is a buffer zone that means you will do some hiking in the nasty stuff. as for where the herd is the odd/pv will get you todays info

boneaddict:
Understand the road is in "wonderful" condition.  I ran into two guys while I was moosing, and they had just gotten back from there.  They had a blast and suggested I run up and do it.  I already had a full load of meat.  Sounded fun though.

GoldTip:
I believe the buffer zone is five miles either side of the highway, but only applies to hunting with a gun.  I believe the area up to one hundred yards or feet, not sure which, from the highway is open for archery.
