I'm trying to do this as cheap as possible without being too cheap, if that makes any sense. I am planning on a little over a week, I would be hunting with my buddy on the weekends but by myself during the week. Just looking for a second opinion to his.
The question you really need to ask yourself is if you really want to pack a moose that's the size of a draft horse "a mile or so" on your back, especially if you could be alone. Unit 13 has had pretty tight restrictions on non-residents that last several years. I believe most of the 13 subunits have all been drawing for non-res recently. Units 14 and 13 get hit really hard because of their proximity to Anchorage and the Mat-Su and their road access.
