Nice.  You 'bumped into' them, huh.  A little nudge from you goes a long way.  Congrats.

Thanks for the kind words.  I'm calling it a night so I'll share some details of the hunt tomorrow.  Here are a couple of additional pics...Alaska is a special place!
 

Here is my Alaska hunting partner, Kevin Dill cooking up caribou backstraps...we didn't need much "mountain house" on this trip  :)

Yowser! Nice "bumping". Love it when the freeze dried meals get saved for next time. Looking forward to the tale of the hunt.

Don't tell no body but ME Danny!  I sure can't seem to pick a decent moose spot in my own state!

Nice Bryan!

First...Big congrats to my hunting partner! All it takes is a lot of cedar and plane tickets...;-)

For the rest of you...Bryan is the only guy I know that's basically worn out a pair of Schnee's boots just chasing caribou and moose. We've seen a lot of good country together, and he's the real deal. I personally know how much effort he has invested in this successful hunt...but that is his story. The only thing that makes Alaska better is having a great hunting partner!

Bryan, I didn't see a picture of Sarah, so you must be really bummed! : )

Congrats on making the best of a failed trip!

Can't wait to hear "the rest of the story"!
