Doug- I've been there! Didn't have snow when I was there though!!

The deer hunting and the scenery are unbelievable, but a Kodiak trip is not for the faint of heart!! STEEP hills and I wound up having to fill out the 'Defense of Life and Property' paperwork courtesy of Alaska Fish and Game. Yogi wanted to fight me over a deer I was carrying out. Great experience, but I'm NEVER going back!!

 

 

OH MY,

I thought they frowned upon hero pics of DLP's. I saw a bunch of bears, and they are big and fast. Made me feel like "I" was trespassing.

 

I'd go tomorrow if I could, or the next day, or the next day. Wouldn't want to live there but sure would like to glass big Sitkas every year.

Not trying to get you all excited. When we were checked by a Trooper we told him about the bears we had been seeing. He told us that if a bear confronted us for a deer it was his deer. We were pushed off a kill but fortunately we had the meat in our packs and the bear was content with the skin and guts. I guess I don't understand a proud picture of a deer on the ground with nobody next to it, and 3 deer piled in a truck. Then trophy shots of a DLP, even one with a hat posed on it's head . I'm happy for you and your family that you made it home safe. Kodiak is a dangerous place, but we know that before we go there.

 

I guess I deserve to be flamed away.

My thoughts exactly. It seems a bit "tacky" to me.
