Default RE: Moose huntin' Lets talk

Muley,

The drive to the Alcan is going to take you about four days, and that is pushing it. Getting firearms through Canada is no longer easy, and if you screw up the paperwork, you just donated your gun to the Canadian government. Getting your meat back through Canada will also require permits.

As for camping areas, sure there are areas you can drive and camp, but so can everyone else. As a general rule, the further you get from the road, the better your chances. Hunting Alaska is NOT like the lower 48 where you can drive some forest roads find a decent ridge etc and hunt. There is just not that great of access.

By the time you spend the time, money, etc., you would probably be better off just flying up here and doing it yourself with an air taxi, a moose hunt wiil average cost about $3000 but you can do it much, much, much cheaper if you know who to fly with.
