RE: North to Alaska
I have Cabela's MTO50 Rain Gear. Theyhave proven themselves on a verywet & coldmoose hunt. The outfitter will have a back-up set of rubber rain gear on board, if I need them?
I will bring a digital camera/camcorder, this camera worked well on our last vacation.
Ben's-100 is a must have item. I will take the small bottle I have & buy two more bottles for the trip. Thanks for the heads-up dayna0306.
I am not sure if a thermacell works when soakingwet? This isa spot & stalk bear hunt. I think Ben's-100 is the better choice on this hunt.
My hunting experience has been limited tothe lower 48-states.
Ihave hunted big game in Idaho, Montana & Wyoming.
My weapon of choice is a Ruger M-77 chambered in300-win mag. Topped with a Leupold Vari X-II 3x9x40mm. scope. ShootingNosler 200-grain Accubond bullets, these are handloads.This combonation has worked well in the past on elk. I am expecting the same results on black bear.
The only newitem I have purched for the hunt is Under Armour cold gear. I have never used Under Armour before? I hope it will preform as expected?I will bring smart wool, longjohn's as a back-up. I know smart wool works.
Thanks,
WK
