Summary

EP 654: Craig Van Arsdale | Moose Hunting Adventures
This week on the podcast, I catch up with my good friend and hunting partner, Craig Van Arsdale, as we dive into our moose hunting experiences and the love-hate relationship we both have with the pursuit. While Craig and I were hunting different parts of the state, our adventures couldn’t have been more different—one was marked by an epic moose hunt, while the other ended in a spectacular fail.
We reminisce about the struggles of DIY moose hunting, including the challenge of escaping the crowds. After 47 days of hard work, Craig finally got the monkey off his back and harvested a magnificent moose. Join us for lessons learned, thrilling hunting stories, and an in-depth look at the realities of DIY moose hunting in Alaska.
