Alaska Caribou Drop Hunt

We think this is the best remote hunt available ANYWHERE for the DIY hunter! An Alaska caribou drop hunt is a true remote Arctic adventure for experienced hunters looking for a DIY hunting experience.

  • Remote, fly-in, DIY caribou hunting at an affordable price!
  • The key to a successful unguided caribou hunting is to be dropped in front of the bulk of the moving herd. The transporter will do their best to accommodate this.
  • Since this is a fly-in DIY caribou hunt, you can either provide all of the gear and food (most hunters ship it up ahead of time), or the outfitter will rent you the equipment you need and sell you the food you will take.Physical condition is the key, so be in good shape.
  • Fully guided caribou hunts are also available, and should be seriously considered if you aren’t in shape or an experienced hunter.

OPTION #1:

OUTFITTED CAMP AND FOOD PACKAGE

Bring your own gear or rent camping gear and food from the transporter.

Above the Arctic Circle is no place to skimp on gear! In addition to knowing what hunters will need while in the field, it makes it less expensive to travel on commercial flights. In 35+ years of providing service to their hunters, along with their own Alaska experiences, this outfitter has put together a gear list that provides hunters with not only comfort, but the NECESSITIES of being out in what can be a very harsh and unforgiving environment.

You’ll Still Need to Bring Your Essentials

While the transporter will supply gear and food, you will need to bring your personal gear, hunting equipment, and your preferred weapon. Your familiarity with your own equipment ensures you’re comfortable and confident during your hunt.

OPTION #2:

PROVIDE YOUR OWN CAMP GEAR AND FOOD

We will work with you on selecting which gear you need and provide you with suggestions to get your gear to Alaska. This package provides you with the same logistical support as the fully outfitted package.

    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.

  17. Robyn Keeney

    Overall, we loved the experience of hunting in the arctic circle, but there were a few things that could have been improved. We understand weather is unpredictable, and we were warned about that ahead of time, but a little more info about the decision-making process, and who might go into the field when, would have helped us understand and plan our time better.
