Welcome to the Hunt Back Country Podcast. This is episode 489 and as part of the

experience project Steve and I are discussing our experience flying for our recent

caribou hunt in Alaska. This is a somewhat informal follow-up to a private conversation that we had about how to plan a fly-in hunt in Alaska.

So if you missed that episode, be sure to go back and tune into that one.

You'll hear our conversation with Nick from Nick's Air Service.

And it's not about his business in particular.

It's all about how to plan a do-it-yourself hunt in Alaska that includes an element of

finding a pilot how to do that when to do that what to know and more and this does

apply to more situations than just Alaska.

In today's conversation again it's a follow-up to our experience flying with Nick and

getting into the field but we also talk about our experience flying

flying with Nick and getting into the field, but we also talk about our experience

flying commercially with Alaska Airlines,

how we got all of the meat and our caribou racks home from Alaska and more. If you check out the

link in the show description you will not only find that link to the previous

podcast we did with Nick. You will also find a video that I did a couple years ago about how I fly with a rifle and other gear for hunting and other advice.

So whether you're playing a very remote for hunting and other advice.

So whether you're planning a very remote hunt

with a small plane and hiring a pilot for an air taxi service

or you just want to hear a bit more about flying commercially for hunts out of state,

flying with weapons or meat, etc. There's something to take away from this episode.

As always we appreciate you guys tuning in.
