Little delta question?
« on: June 04, 2020, 11:55:43 AM »
Does anyone know if there’s a resource online that shows the map used by Glenn at Charles and Fred bear on the little delta hunts? Or a photo of a map from that era? I no longer have my bows on the little delta book and am doing a bit of research. Also, what did Fred’s arrows look like on his hunts there? From photos it looks like they were painted white. Does that sound right? And what color fletch did he use. Hard to tell from a b&w photo! Thanks!

I can't help with the map, but I think from most pictures I have seen, Fred normally had red and yellow fletchings on his arrows.

Here is a reproduction of the arrows used on the Little Delta hunt that I just finished.  I copied the arrows that Bryan Burkhardt and Jim Eckert used in Alaska last fall.  Glenn St. Charles' daughter built them from photos they had.



There are a couple of excellent podcasts on Stickbow Chronicles about Bryan and Jim's tribute hunt last fall on the Little Delta.  They were recreating the hunt from 50 years ago.

Bunyun, page 192 of Bows on the Little Delta has the map. I can send it via text if you like. the pic is on my phone so I cant transfer it to the desktop (work computer).
