Peter Tippen: Alaska Unguided Caribou Hunt Report

HUNT: Unguided Caribou Drop Hunt
CONSULTANT: Russ Meyer | Outdoors International

August, 2017

We did not see many caribou in Alaska. The weather conditions changed while we were in the field. All of the hunters in before us got caribou. We got one the first day and after that did not see many. I do not think this is the fault of the outfitter and is the nature of hunting. We will go back to Alaska to try again.

We were in a great place, lots of bears, great fishing and it was a wonderful experience. We were very happy, well taken care of. The outfitter was timely, friendly, treated us like family and friends and had great gear. Very thorough and professional. We will go back and hunt with them again. It was a great Alaska adventure.

I didn't think an experience like this was possible.

This trip, was, for me at least not just a trip, for me it was a real adventure, a real experience. I love the wilderness and this trip afforded me the opportunity to connect with the Alaskan wilderness in ways very few people do. It was an experience I will never forgot in a place I can’t wait to get back to.

The outfitter handled everything perfectly.

We were thankful that Outdoors International hooked us up with a great outfitter because they were able to find us an acceptable alternate on short notice. Overall the two year process to get this float in was seamless and worry free. Just like it should be.

Thank you, Stan Masneri

What an amazing experience!

The lodge was out of this world! Our rooms, the delicious food, the incredible wildlife and the scenery were amazing. Our photo safari guide was truly exceptional and had us on animals almost constantly. We saw over 30 different species and had some incredible up close experiences. Africa is amazing!
