stories abound when you fly

Your Alaska unguided caribou hunt begins when you touch down in Kotzebue after your flight from Anchorage. Before nightfall, you'll have your camp set up in one of the most remote areas of the world: the arctic tundra.

We begin our drop off caribou hunt season the end of August and run through the first part of October.  With these hunt dates the caribou have already begun (or finished) shedding their velvet, their antlers are hard and the migration is working its way through our utilized drop zones.  As a bonus, the bugs that Alaska is "known" for are all but non-existent since the season is cooler than the summer months - makes your unguided caribou or moose hunt that much better!

In the fall, the Western Arctic Caribou Herd will have split up into smaller herds moving to their wintering areas. Earlier in the spring the herd would have been as many as 400,000 strong, now they travel in groups that number in the hundreds. Our job, as your transporter, is to keep track of the herds and to put you in the best place to find them.

Your Alaska sheep hunt could be the toughest and most rewarding hunt you ever undertake.  Alaska Dall Sheep are smart, fast, and they live in one of the toughest environments you can imagine.

If you're coming for an Alaska sheep hunt, start getting in shape right away. You'll need to be able to follow these rugged animals in the thin air. Most likely while you're carrying a moderate pack of gear.

Alaska Grizzly Bear Hunting

Ram Aviation will help you set up your Alaska grizzly bear hunting trip.

The grizzly bear is the same species of bear as the brown bear, but the name grizzly is taken from it's "grizzled" fur - gray hairs mixed into the brown. They've also been called "silvertip bears."

Above the Arctic Circle where we hunt the Grizzly's - an adult male Alaska grizzly bear can get up to 1500 pounds and stand 8-10 feet tall.  They are considerably smaller than the brown bear that are hunted in lower Alaska, but still provide that "fear factor" when you see one in the field and remain a sought after trophy for many of our hunters.

The brown bear and the grizzly bear are considered to be the same bear by scientists and the Alaska Department of Fish and Game.

An adult male Alaska brown bear can get up to 1500 pounds and stand 8-12 feet tall. The Alaska brown bear hunting license is good for either type of bear.  This Alaska Brown Bear to the left was taken in the Spring season ou of Cold Bay, AK and was measured out at approximately 11'2" - imagine the adrenaline rush you have when you meet up with this guy in the willows!!

Alaska float hunting (and fishing!) is a great way to spend your Alaska hunting time.  Normally, when we take you out into the bush, we land on flat gravel strips along the edge of one of our NW Alaska rivers.  The combination of glaciers and running water has created smooth patches of gravel that are exposed during the lower water levels of the fall Alaska hunting season.

 

Those same low water levels make Alaska float trips easy and fun for even inexperienced boaters.
