After drying out some gear that ended up a bit waterlogged from the previous nights misadventure, we headed up to the top of a terrible road to do some high alpine hiking.

After an abnormally nice day up in the high country we decided to risk camping down near where we spent the previous night. Thankfully we found a spot a few feet higher up and had an uneventful night.

FANTASTIC PICS!

Remarkable adventure with the pics and storytelling doing justice to such an amazing place. I cancelled a Brooks Range hunt about 20 years ago. Dumbest thing I ever did. It still lingers on my list of landscapes I hope to explore before I'm in a rocking chair.

Thanks for sharing here @theat.

Awesome thread. I'm a bit envious. Looks like you found a spot where you could keep the sheds and dead heads.

Real nice n welcome to ak. Hey the weather is what it is. The mountain tundra looks fantastic this time of year and everything is moving, eating.
Yeppers walking across the wetter muskkeg can take a toll on the body. Should be plenty of berries or maybe too late. Amazing how fast caribou move, they may not be running but it's like they never stop walking.
The moose hunting is always great. Lot of flooding going on so water will be moving fast n deep. And you will be exposed to more sweepers, trees n brush hanging out over the water, that you have to avoid at all costs. Have a saw ready n your load even n low. A good pole to push off can be handy. And moose are heavy making steering difficult. Try to have a plan.
If you harvest one trying to keep them dry can be hard work. But worth the effort though.
Great luck n safe journeys
