Title: Alaska Moose in September!
Post by: CedarPants on June 20, 2011, 10:41:59 AM: I'm lucky enough to have the opportunity to travel to Alaska this September with a couple really good hunting buddies. We'll be after moose east out of Fairbanks and I CAN NOT WAIT!! Anyone have any hunting stories or pics from their Alaska trips?

He's lived there forever and we decided this year was the year to finally take him up on his offer to come join them at moose camp. I had honestly wanted to start bowhunting this year, but this moose hunt obviously took precedence. Threw in for a cow elk muzzleloader tag here and drew that though, so 3 weeks after I get home from Alaska I'll be chasing elk around Central WA. Should be a great fall!

Carp - that is ironically the 2nd reference to crack I've heard today about this trip. I was talking to my wife about the cow tag I drew as well as the B deer tag, and she finally realized I'll be hunting basically from September 1st through December 31st. Her reaction was to ask me if I was smoking crack
