Summary

Dennis Zadra, owner of Lonesome Dove Outfitters, joins the podcast to discuss what gear works for him while hunting the perpetually wet conditions in Alaska's Chugach National Forest. Lonesome Dove Outifitters Alaska’s Premier Hunting ToursWelcome to Lonesome Dove Outfitters where you will find honest and sincere people providing you with a memorable Alaskan hunt. We are not based out of a lodge or from a boat, but instead, we operate out of comfortable tent camps which we move frequently to keep you in the best hunting areas for the given time and game movements. The slight sacrifice in comfort of this type of hunting is more than made up for in the quality and quantity of game you will encounter. We do not over-hunt our areas and only book a limited number of clients per year. There are currently more Hunting Guides licensed in Alaska than ever before, so you have a lot to choose from. Make this choice wisely. You are investing a great deal of time and money to come to Alaska and hunt, and there is a huge variety in the service you will get. Unfortunately, some Outfitters you may encounter are far better salesmen than they are hunting guides, and you will have to be able to tell the difference. Our FAQs page can help you with this and we will be glad to answer any questions you may have. We are a small, family-run business and not a large hunting corporation who farms their Alaskan hunts out to whoever will give them the best commission. Our success rates are high and our clients go away satisfied. We operate primarily on a Special Use Permit from the Chugach National Forest, which gives us access to approximately 2.5 million acres of Alaskan Wilderness. We know this country well and can provide you with a very personalized hunt, so check us out before you book your Alaskan Adventure Phone1-888-388-3683 Postal MailDennis M.
