Awesome story Arctic! Your diligence is to be admired. I'm also curious how Musk Ox tastes? I was curious, why was Abe not even allowed to take a few pics of you and your trophy? Would they consider that indirectly a part of "guiding"? Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing/hearing about some of your bear hunts, and I'm sure everyone else is as well. Congrats on a rare trophy.

ABM, Fantastic !

The transporters walk a fine line by being a part of the actual hunt. Technically they are not allowed to touch the animal, take pictures, butcher, etc. For this hunt they allow the transporter to take you to the field in the general area of the musk ox, then transport you and your musk ox back to Mekoryuk. There are one or two guides on the island as well, and they pay the big bucks for going through the licensing, insurances, etc. so they try to separate the two services as much as possible.

Thanks for the congrats. I'll work on writing up the coastal brownie and arctic grizzly hunts in the next week or so. I've got a few other hunts as well, including a couple rifle hunts for moose and mountain goat.

Great story I really enjoyed it. What an incredible place, nothing but snow for freakin miles. Here is my question to you , what the heck do these guys eat out there. I mean does the snow ever melt off and when it comes back is there vegetation underneath that they have to root around for???
