If you are going to Alaska and spending all that money-- there is nothing worst than staying at a smelly - raunchy place--
As I say, there is no such thing as a cheap Alaska Trip -
I stayed at the Puffin INN the name sounded good- I was with my wife, I would not recomend -- but it may have changed -
I say this, it is like going to a BAD place to eat, do you go back ??
Lots of good places to eat-- Snow Goose is good--
What is a good nights sleep worth - like a good sleeping bag-- you don't sleep when you get cold-- rest is important-- vitamens, taking care of your body-- a hunt will stress you and will push your normal limits.
Another thing-- may airlines will not allow antlers to shipped in one piece-- they will have to be cut in half- will cost you--
I would check out some freight companies or ship up in advance - try Estes trucking--
IN 1990, I took my first trip to Akaska, was to cost 3K ended up costing 7K --
If someone will pick you up at the airport that will save you money. I suggest sending arrows and your back up bow i n advance --
On a trip to Kotsebue ( spelling) above Nome
My bags arrived -- no bows-- they arrived 3 days later. Meanwhile caribou were running through camp--
There is an old saying " sometimes cheap is expensive.
I have gone to Alaska - 19 times=--
Good luck and plan-- I did not have the internet -- do research- you will be there a limited amount of time -- make it count--
Good Hunting -- and don't forget to bring some wool - the most recomended garment by outfitters in Alaska --
