I am at the very beginning stages of researching a caribou hunt for the wife and I. I was hoping for some input or advice on what the options are right now. This would be a save up for a year or two thing so I'm not looking for 2014.
It looks like the big herd migration hunts in Northern Canada have been getting a lot more expensive the last five years or so. Is this still the way to go or is there better options?
Does anyone know of a feasible drive up hunt? We love road trips and it might be really fun to take a couple days on the ends of the trip to drive. It looks like the mountain caribou hunts in BC are kind of a high dollar thing, and not usually done as a single species deal.
I've also looked a little at the 40 mile air option in Alaska. The price seems manageable, but I'm not sure if I can talk my wife in to flying in and staying by ourselves in a backpacking tent.
Any input would be appreciate.
