Alaska Hunting Regulations
Your Alaska caribou hunting or Alaska moose hunting trip is made possible by the fine people at the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. They're the ones who oversee the distribution of licenses and the drawing of specific tags.
They also are the ones who have set up some regulations that might seem strange to outsiders. One example would be how you have to handle the meat you take. We won't go into details here, because we want you to read the official Department of Fish and Game website in case they've made any changes.
Also, be sure you're reading the specific rules for the area where you're hunting. There are things that are required in GMU 23, where we do most of our camps, that are different than some of the other Game Management Units.

You are responsible getting all required licenses, tags & harvest reports before your arrival in Kotzebue. As a licensed Alaska Air Transporter, we'll need to check your documents before we take you out, and we'll walk you through some of the finer points the morning you head into the field.
Just be aware that you are the one responsible for your hunting activities. Our local game officers are good people. You'll find they're friendly - but strict. Don't think that just because you are miles from the nearest town, that they won't drop in on you. They fly everyday and know we're going to drop you in spots where the caribou or other game are, so they know pretty much where you should be.
