Hunt and Fish Alaska with Ram Aviation
Your Alaska Caribou Hunt
stories abound when you fly
with Ram Aviation.
Your Alaska 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.
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 450,000 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.
We begin our Caribou drop off hunt season the last few days of August and run through the end of September. 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 a cooler than the summer months - makes your Alaska caribou hunt that much more pleasureable!
Your Alaska Moose Hunt
Alaska Moose hunting is open to State Residents, however, Non-Resident Moose Hunters must be DRAWN to hunt in Game Management Unit (GMU) #23. The units we typically utilize are:
DM872
DM875
DM876
The moose drawing applications can be submitted both online and by snail mail (US Mail). The application process opens November 1st - December 31st for online applicants and for US Mail the cut off date is a postmark of December 15th. The draw results are then posted in late March of the following year, for the season of September 1st - 20th.
Alaska Grizzly Bear Hunting
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."
An adult male Alaska grizzly bear can get up to 1500 pounds and stand 8-10 feet tall.
Alaska Sheep Hunt
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.
Phoenix ISE Show Caribou Hunt Winner
On Thursday, February 25th we arrived at the Glendale Sportman's Arena for the Phoenix International Sportmen's Expo for our booth set-up. The facility was beautiful and as we met other vendors in our area, it looked like it was going to be a great show!
Friday morning opened up with a bang! Many of you stopped by, chatted and were very enthusiastic about the idea of having an Alaska Caribou or Moose hunt at an affordable and doable pricing. While at the show, we set up a BUSINESS CARD DRAWING that many of you dropped your card in for. On Sunday evening, after the show was over, we drew
MIKE KEARN of Litchfield Park, AZ
as the WINNER of the 2 - 50% off Caribou Hunts
Friday through Sunday, we met with many hunters who repeated "we've been looking for Alaska drop-off Caribou and Moose hunts". It was very refreshing to talk to so many experienced "do it yourselfers" and are looking forward to contacting those of you who indicated you were wanting to take that drop off caribou or moose hunt.
THANKS TO ALL OF YOU WHO STOPPED BY AND MADE THIS SHOW A SUCCESS!
About Ram Aviation
will be the adventure of your life.
The feeling when you first touch down on a gravel river bar in the middle of the arctic wilderness is like none you'll ever have again. The air is crisp and so clear that the mountains look like you could throw a rock and hit them - and yet so big as to inspire awe. The river, low this time of year, is as clear as the air. As you get your gear off the plane you can hardly take the smile off your face.
And then the plane takes off and you are alone. Alone in the Alaska wilderness, hundreds of miles from the nearest village. And you will never feel that free again.
