Awesome video! It’s always nice to safely enjoy time in the outdoors! I’m planning a diy moose hunt for my dad and I in 2026! Definitely looking forward to it!
You've embarked on the ultimate adventure with your DIY Alaska moose hunt! Your courage, determination, and love for the wild are truly inspiring. Wishing you success in your hunt and unforgettable moments in the vast Alaskan wilderness! And im am floating village life.
Great video and great trip. I have a similar hunt in mind, but will likely rent/row rafts down river and hunt along the way (Float hunting Alaska is an amazing book, but you guys basically did everything he writes about already). I love that the two guys drove all the way up there in the old Chevy and hauled your own boat. Its amazing how wet and muddy it is. I got to spend the summer of 2015 up there leading a couple backcountry expeditions. Its amazing territory and I cant wait to get back.
interesting video , the real experience is the best lessons are learned in nature , you find out who you are , and see what our ancestors had to deal with year around , daily , its also the adventure , amd making great memories ,
I drew a Koyukuk moose tag three years ago and when my wife asked if I needed a new gun I told her I needed a new jet boat... Drove the boat to Alaska from Utah and boated 530 miles down the Yukon and up the Koyukuk to get my moose, then another 530 miles back up the river. Took my wife and son on this most memorable of all my hunts! This year I drew my second tag in Delta Junction and plan to do it without a boat (sold the boat after I used it for the first hunt). Can't wait to give it another go!
Thanks Gary! We’re going to take my nephew in 2025 for his high school graduation. Would love to talk to you more about this offer! Email me at jddowne@yahoo.com please.
There’s a couple locals with a cabin up there that move taxidermy around on different root wads to keep people guessing. Lots of bullet holes in that thing!
Thanks for shing your ups and downs! My best friend and I made a Alaska DIY hunt and never regretted it.
Thanks for sharing 🎉🎉🎉
Brother I call that trip a big win! You guys did something so many of us dream of, just spectacular!

Rock on brothers… I would have chipped in and rolled with u all !! Awesome work 👍👍
Awesome video, I live in Missouri too and am planning a hunt for next fall
Awesome, whereabouts in Missouri? We’re hauling two jet boats up there in 2025, can’t wait. Where you headed?
@@jddowne Jefferson City, haven’t decided 100% just yet but I’m thinking Prince Of Wales to hunt Blacktail
Respect Guys I’m from Illinois good job
Awesome trip and a lifetime of memories. The haters are just jealous and don't have the cahunas to make it happen.

Wait a sec, you honestly boated over 1,000 miles on a river moose hunt? How long did that take and how did you logistically plan for that much fuel?
I did the same exact hunt!!! Only I came from Washington state!!! Two years ago.
@@jddowne We got on the river on the 16th and got off the river the 24th.
Where did you guys put in at? We put in by Manley hot springs...
@@ream301delta junction.
you sound like that one alaska hunter guide, like if I had my eyes closed, I wouldn't be able to tell you two apart.
You. Would need. To be dedicated. It’s. A. Big adventure. Best of. Luck.
I live in Kenai Alaska
All the time if you like to go hunting again in Alaska
I'll just take you out hunting

BAD ASS
How much did DIY moose hunt in 2023 cost you?
Who the heck went to the trouble of putting a deer mount on the river up there?! So random!
