air fare over 500 is the norm??? Heck I just saw it going for 225 rt from Minneapolis to Fairbanks!

600 for moose? Do your homework!

The guides...cant help ya there. Sheep, goats and brown bears are a very LIMITED source...unlike turkey and wt populations! They are already trying to limit sheep for one every 4 years for residents. One grizz/brown every 4 years is already in effect. When you look at AK prices compared to some western hunts...its friggn CHEAP! The costs is charter flights in and out, getting meat in and out, and getting yourself up here and back (This one you can work with if you are watching it!) I spent just under 200 for 2 deer tags in Mn. Yup you are getting 2 turkey tags with that fall archery lisc but last I looked it was what...150? Mn is draw for the big birds.....a hole different ball game there!

You dont like putting prices on heads but that is what you are trying to get your state to follow????

AK can follow and make most of the state closed to Non res so we can have a decent place to hunt that hasnt been overrun by Non res and the charter pilots buiz's!!! Very simple considering your biggest US state is MOSTLY state or fed lands!!!

I hear your cry to upping prices but you reasons are as far fletched as your thinkings!
