Christmas Wish Trip

[BigHornRam]

Put up a trip you would like do compliments of Santa. Santa is on a budget this year so max of 10k for your wish trip. Here's one trip I would like to do do before I expire. Ignore the barfy NYT write up and focus on the pictures.

Far, Maybe Too Far, Into the Yukon (Published 2012)

On a canoe trip near the Arctic Circle, capsizing in swift current, backpaddling to avoid a bear and seeing what the world looks like more than 100 miles from the nearest road.

What else sounds like fun?

@BrentD , although I probably couldn't do that trip for $10K nowadays.

But in all seriousness, Alaska moose will likely be my top dream hunt until I do it, and then potentially still afterwards.

Over budget and Santa heard you've been naughty this year.

A DIY tahr/chamois trip is plenty feasible.....

Bonefish, Tarpon, Permit & Cuda from the beach, and panga's for marlin, tuna & dorado, while partaking in $5 lobster lunches on a tiny little island in the Caribbean.

One of the most popular activities and reasons people visit Little Corn Island is for the wonderful sport fishing. On Little Corn, you can enjoy both world class shore (flats) fishing and offshore fishing (typically less than 5 miles offshore).

A trip to the bank to cash a $10,000 check.

Barring that, rent a boat in SE Alaska and see what I can catch.

AK DIY caribou

I would have to say a hunt for either a cape buffalo or tuskless elephant in the Zambezi Valley. Or a hunting/fishing/exploring trip to New Zealand.

A one way trip to a remote cabin somewhere to live out the rest of my life?

10k would put me back on a moose hunt in AK or BC

It is funny that you ask.

I am planning a South America trip that will allow me to

a. Hunt Red Stag and Doves in Argentina
b. 5 day boat trip on the Amazon River in Brazil
c. Inca Jungle trek to Machu Picchu in Peru

and the cost is very close to the amount allowed by the op

I have always wanted to visit S. America and have had this plan in the works for over a year.

Alaska sea duck and blacktail hunt

I would not complain about bonus puddle ducks or fishing

In all seriousness this is pretty much my one and only bucket list item right now, and being a young man, I hope it to be a very achievable dream

Easy. DIY moose trip to Alaska. I think Marcus just did a caribou for under that, so would only need to add super cub transport.

Hunting: DIY Alaskan caribou

Fishing: DIY tarpon fly fishing tarpon hunt in Puerto Rico.
