TRIP TAKEN: DIY Cordova, Alaska Blacktail Deer Hunt
CONSULTANT: Kyle Hanson, Outdoors International
November 21, 2024
Had a great trip to Cordova, Alaska to hunt Blacktail deer. We were picked up at the airport, stopped at the range to check zero on the rifles, then went to the Transporter’s place to drop everything off. He had a vehicle for us to use to go to town and see the sights. The following evening we headed out to the islands to hunt deer, ducks, and fish. The game was plentiful and the vessel-based accommodations were fantastic. He has great videos on his phone showing his boats and how they’re rigged out for the hunters.
Would highly recommend you to get a few buddies together and head out on this hunt!

Our hunt was excellent.
We saw bucks every day along with all other sorts of wildlife. Mountain goats, bears, and foxes were common sights. Fishing and crabbing was special bonus. The food was excellent, the crew was amazing. Outdoors International did a great job of finding exactly what we were looking for.

What an amazing experience!
The hunting lodge was out of this world!, Rooms, food and the scenery were all A+. Our guide was exceptional and had us on Shiras moose all five days. We saw over 30 total with at least 10 bulls. They had a plan for everything including taxidermy and game processing.
