Best part of this hunt is the grey beards and the good relationship of a father and son. Does not get better. Well done.
Love Father and Son Hunts, although it brings a tear to my eyes, i miss hunting with my Dad,,, do it as much as you can,,, its sad when they are gone,, we had some great hunts, i wish we could have done more,, congrats you guys
Congratulations so happy that you both got your meat. A trip you will never forget
And a good time was had by all.I know how difficult it is to walk on the tundra and with added weight comes added problems. Congratulations on the video and the hunt.
Some specific gear links have been added to the description.
Thank you Damon for sharing your hunts with us. I love your humble style and thorough processes.
Just came across your video. Would’ve loved to have done any hunting with my dad. Love hunting with my sons. Hopefully i can talk them into spending the money to go with me. Loved to see the lever action. I have a ‘94 my dad bought me for xmas present when I turned 18. Leverrevolution ammo is game changer
Amazing !
Older video but how much was the bush planes to get y’all out then back to your vehicle
At the time they were around $2500 per hunter for round trip bush flights out of Happy Valley
Happy for you both to get two . What a hunt
Does your Dad have a second tag for a second bull caribou too. ,?? Enjoy the quiet
We're preparing for a Haul Road hunt this fall and looking at bear fences; what brand/model is yours and how did you like it? Also, what ammo did you use in your .45-70? Awesome video, looking forward to seeing more!
Our bear fence was from UDAP, and it worked well, although we never even saw any bears where we hunted. Did see a wolf. I shoot Hornady Leverevolution 325 grain in my 45-70
@@DamonBungard Did they drop pretty quick with that combo?
Great video
Epic trip and great intel. Thanks for sharing! Did you have any issues renting the Suburban to drive the Haul road? Any exclusions or extra costs? Appreciate it!
We did not have any rental issues. Think we used Enterprise at the time because they didn't have those restrictions like other rental agencies. You'd have to see what current restrictions are though as our trip was 6 years ago and things may have changed.
@@DamonBungard thank you sir
Did you see any bear ? I / we did a self guided hunt in Noatak in 95 for caribou. Only saw seven caribou the whole week close enough to think about shooting. One small bull and six cows. It was too warm, snowed the day we left. Day after we left the caribou started moving through the camp. I did get a 62 inch moose. High light was seeing a sow with three cubs at about 15 yards. They were feeding in a stream, we were above them on a bluff beside the stream.
Great video.
we did not see any bear. we did see one wolf
Great hunt 👍
Any information on where you got the NEOS hip waders? I have a caribou hunt coming up and would love to find a pair.
At the time we got them from Barney's Sports Chalet in Anchorage, but I don't think they are still in production.
What was the brand of tarp poles that you used? Myself and 3 others are headed to Kotzebue in Sept 2020. I like your system of hanging the meat.
they are MSR tarp poles. www.msrgear.com/tents/tent-accessories/adjustable-poles/adjustable-poles.html
@@DamonBungard thank you
I’m going on this hunt with my dad and my brother next season I live in anchorage, what month did y’all go in on because we are planning for later July maybe early august
we went in August. Hope you have a great trip and hunt
@@DamonBungard thanks!
Excellent hunt!! Congrats! What air company did you use for your drop hunt? Thanks!
we booked air transportation through Deltana Outfitters, but I don't believe they are offering self guided hunts anymore.
How did your tipi tent hold up? Did you get any crazy winds on the trip that made that Tipi want to blow over? We just booked a trip for next year and was thinking of taking two Tipi tents for the four of us. Awesome video and congrats and the great memories it looks like you made!
we didn't have any problems at all with the tent withstanding winds. Just bring longer stakes that what generally comes with them to get good bite down deep in the tundra
@@DamonBungard awesome thanks for the reply! And great idea with the meat hanging stations! I’ve been trying to think of a good way to do that!
Do you know a ball park figure on cost of the trip? Without fuel or plane ride there and back home of course.
At the time of our hunt the transporter fee (pair of Super Cubs in and out) was $2500 per hunter. Figure another $1000 per week for a rental car. I usually estimate $750 for a flight from the lower 48 to Anchorage. All said and done (except taxidermy and meat shipping costs) I'd estimate around $5K.
👍
Where is Jeager?
I hope to take him on a caribou hunt one day. All of his videos are now on the Jaeger Tracks channel on TH-cam
Diy, lol if your a non resident you have to have a guide, or a resident in alaska.
non-residents do not need need a guide for caribou, deer, black bear and moose (some zones) in Alaska. Guides are only required for brown/grizzly bear, mountain goat and sheep.
@@DamonBungard I'm been reading the regs they sent me and black bear and small game non resident can hunt. Guide on grizzly brown moose caribou, I'm going by book I received from alaska fish and game.

Non-resident Aliens (non US citizen) need a guide on caribou
