By this time tomorrow I will have left Atlanta international airport and be well on my way to Salt Lake City. From there it is on to Anchorage for about a 5 hour layover. We will fly out of Anchorage at 6am to Kotzebue. After grabbing a quick breakfast if the weather is good, we fly 50 miles northwest into the tundra on a DIY caribou hunt. I will be back in 10-12 days hopefully with stories to tell and pictures to show.
I'm going with Greg Campbell from Marshallville. He's done this 3 or 4 times already and was gracious enough to allow a novice caribou hunter to tag along. I am a little pumped needless to say! Wish me luck! :wavey:

Since you have such a long layover in Anchorage, grab the shuttle to the Milenium Hotel and get an order of Halibut Chunks and Shrimp Bisque from the bar there. I do it anytime I have more than a two hour layover...it is that good!

Thanks for the info Steve!

Glacier brew house was my favorite place to eat when I lived in Anchorage. Moose's tooth pizza pretty good and can get some good beer at both places.

Don't forget your bug repellent or you'll be sooorrry... good luck. :thumbsup:
When i was up there in 83' we were paddling a canoe though the shallow end of a lake one evening .... when all of a sudden here comes a bull moose flying across the water about 4' feet above our heads. As it came across our bow i heard the mosquitoes talking back and forth saying, "Should we take him to shore and eat him here? or take him home with us?"......

That sounds like a great adventure. Have a great trip, looking forward to hearing how it goes.
