[QUOTE="bballard, post: 1921016, member: 25875"] I went about 4 years ago with Northern Trophy Air. There were 4 of us in the group. The guide service was out of Kotzebue. Basically we flew to Ancorage and then caught a flight to Kotzebue. The four of us were flown out of Kotzebue (2 at a time) about an hour or so away and dropped off in prime country. I think the area was called squirrel valley in the Brooks Range. We saw caribou the same day we landed. It truly was the hunt of a life time! We had nothing but bachelor groups of bulls come by for two days. We shot 6 caribou all within 800 yards of camp....all nice bulls. Had a sow with two cubs eating our gut piles, but she minded her manners. Also saw/heard wolves. Best hunt of my life so far. We all had 300 win mags.....just because of possible bear problems. Caribou are not too hard to kill. Drop hunt cost was $2200 for the ride in and out (well worth it). [/QUOTE]
