Are you going too have the head mounted on the skin rug?
They put a fake skull in the rug. Although i am calling it a rug in actual fact i will get it put on the wall when it gets here. I am getting the actual skull boiled and bleached and it will be sent home with the skin.
Great read. Sounds like a great adventure.
Would love to see some more pic's not just the hunting ones?
Cheers
Shane

Yep pretty close, i think mine will have the head parrallel to the wall though rather than coming out of it.
Awesome trip!!! The frigid scenery doesn't exactly make me long for home but I'm pretty keen to head to Labrador when I get back for a Caribou hunt.

Right here are a few.

Swans at Anchorage. Some of the tourists on our bus were worried that the "little swans" weren't big enough for the flight south. They were informed the "little swans" they were pointing at were in fact ducks...

Stunning.:)
Alaska is a beautiful place. I must have built in bear repellent though, I have been to so many places in North America (not hunting) where I have been warned about bears having been in the camping area in the last 24 hours and I have never laid eyes on one yet. Mind you there is a wee part of me that is happy with that.
awesome photos and trip - ahh one day
Cool write up and absolutely love the pics.
Awesome trip report, your photos are stunning.
I spent Christmas in Alaska a couple of years ago and it is still one of my favourite places out of everywhere I've been.
I would love to return one day when it is colourful (as opposed to frozen solid) and go for a hunt.
