Default Alaska vs. Africa?

Where would you rather hunt?

ie if it were a once in a lifetime hunt, which would you pick, if it were one or the other?

For me, that's like asking "If you could only have one for the rest or your life, which would it be.....food or water?".

I choose Alaska, simple. I can drive there, means I can take more sh*t and guns with me!

Have hunted both (Africa twice); and both were great in their own unique ways. When it comes to costs, however, Africa gives you much more bang for the buck even after factoring in airfare.

Easy choice for me. I love the cold, and hate the heat.

Guess Africa for me, Alaska is the back yard. Just need to stay healthy and have time.
