I'd have to pass too. I couldn't give up hunting whitetails.

I don't know, is there dove hunting up there? I actually enjoy that more than deer hunting, but the season is too short and it takes a few to fill the freezer.:D

Honestly, no way, I bitch about IL's winters.

I think your winters might be a tad more cold then ours. We don't get the -20 to -30 temps like we use to all the time in the winter in January and February. Whats your temps like in the winter? I know you guys get more snow then us.
I think the coldest I saw it this winter was about +15F and it typically bounces back and forth between 20 and 35 all winter. We did have an exceptional snow load this year; I had to shovel twice! The ocean keeps things pretty moderate along the coast. People forget that AK is a huge state with a lot of climate variation. But we do only get about 5 hours of light in the dead of winter.

5 hrs of light that sucks, but don't you guys also get a lot of light in the spring/summer??

That's a negitive ghostrider. I'd love to hunt in Alaska, and envy those who have that opportunity and/or privalage. I love the rolling hills andhardwoods of Virginia, and the whitetails that roam them.
