Great pics. How many days, including travel, were you gone from home/work?

Holy mother of bone, do you have any better pics of the 71" headgear? I'll be in your neighborhood on the 12th T bone. Beverages on me at Shotgun Willies? Sounds like a great trip, thanks for the narrative and pics.

Noharley, I think its one night in Anchorage, one night in Kotzebue, or whatever your bush village is, then you're at the hunting location, but you can't hunt that day. Its not till the 4th day till you can even hunt, when its that remote. Same thing coming back, a day to get to Kotzebue and get organized, then a flight to Anchorage, spend many hours if not a night, then a flight back home.

I like the pictures, thanks. Great trip!

Tom,

My understanding of the 'no hunting sameday airborne' rule is that it doesn't apply to regularly scheduled flight. Was the Caravan ride scheduled, or a charter?

It also doesn't apply to all big game, such as blacktail deer, but it does apply to most of them.

Great pics though! Thanks for sharing.

It was a Charter first off, therefor you could hunt.

HAHA, Jason K. in that UnderArmor Spandex is a HOOT !! I wish I was in Camp to Crack some jokes !!! HAHA !!

do you have any better pics of the 71" headgear?

Not to jump into T~bones Pics or cause anyone to "TWITCH" but Oz is doing some Appraisals for me so he Attached a few Pics to the emails so I thought I'd share too. Jason O's Moose (They had 2 Jasons in camp, FYI) :

I are confused now!

 

[Moosie]

I was jsut saying the Flight from Kotz was considered a Charter so they could hunt the same day. Regardles the size of the plane, If it's a Scheduled flight, and it stays on Course, you can Hunt the same day you step off a plane.

Nice pics. I need to go caribou hunting again. One moose is enough though, those things are too much work.

That's were I'm getting confused.

If it's a charter, not a scheduled flight, then the law applies, no hunting till 3:00AM the next morning.

You need to read what I was Trying to Say Beotch !!!!

I meant "comercial flight", not "charter flight". You guys that take time to read/write things in detail piss me off Thanx for pointing that out.

Now back to your regularly scheduled program.........

 

[noharleyyet]

Details be a biuutch Moosie. Multi-taskers often sacrifice accuracy for speed.

 

[Tom]

Oh, ok, I got it, was it a scheduled commercial flight? If it was not scheduled, then you couldn't hunt, right BW? I get the idea, but aren't all flights scheduled? I need to read the actual wording, like regularly scheduled, maybe that's it? Public scheduled, not private scheduled, right?

No doubt about Jason's big moose, wow! That's awesome!!

So, what about the black bears, you really saw 150 and didn't shoot one? What's the story there?

 

[Moosie]

I'm guessing it wasn't more then 145 black bear. I think he made up the last 5 he saw..... ???

Gentlemen...if the plane in question lands anywhere other than a state maintained airfield you can't hunt until 3 am the next day.

 

[T Bone]

Tejas Tom,

I'm no black bear killer. They remind me too much of my black lab Tarboy that I got as a boy. Sadly, he was attacked by a rapid skunk as a pup. He had one leg and one teste amputated as a result. When he got excited he'd foam at the mouth and the penus.

There's nothing in the regs about State airports.

Here's how it's worded in the big gmae rules book...

It's against the law to hunt or help someone else take big game until 3:00A.M. the day following the day you have flown. This does not apply if you have flown on a regularly scheduled commercial or commuter airplane.

Good point Brian,
I should've said "If you didn't get a boarding pass..."
