Left early friday morning to bird hunt for the weekend, but since I did not take a single picture of any of the birds I will post what pictures I took here. Got four birds, not a good weekend but everything else made for a great trip, enjoyed the peace and quiet. Hope you enjoy the pictures.
Hunt Hard, Die Tired

I snuck up to less than thirty yards of this one, a very nice caribou to be sure, he will live to see another day.

Thanks for the pics John I enjoyed them very much
Wow :highclap:. She is a lonely looking land you traverse John, with some spectacular scenery, some great animals and a sneak.
Great pictures, but it looks like it is starting to get cold there. Maybe not cold for Alaska, but it looks cold to me.

Nice caribou !! Hmmm,,,, :biggrin:
an ass :laf:
The weather's changed a bit since I was there :laf:
Trying to put some of that into words is impossible. It all speaks for itself far better than I could. Glad you had a good time John. :highclap:
Great pictures as always, John. :yoyo:
Again awesome pix, but I'm really curious about what birds you were after? :shrug:
Very nice photos John! Looks like Winter is starting to make it's presense known in the North Country!
Thanks guys, glad you enjoyed them. vvarmitr, I was chasing Ptarmigan all over Gods creation. Scott, Jerry and Dave, she has arrived, the wood stove is going as we speak.

America the Beautiful. All fifty states are unique and beautiful in their own special way, can't imagine living anywhere else.
THANK YOU for the pictures John, I really appreciated them.
Great pictures! Thanks for showing us!!

Figured that was what you were after, but could spell the name. :doh2:
Are they all white yet?
Beautiful shots of some really big country. Especially like the ones of the bull you stalked up on.
Nice pictures of some beautiful country! One of these days I'll need to venture up to our most Northern state to at least sight see.
What birds were you hunting? I'm assuming ptarmigan or perhaps grouse?? :confused:
I missed this, but I'm glad I found it. :congrats: I'll never get tired of pics from that place.
By the way, isnt the Yeti on the endangered list?
:yoyo: Always love the pics... AWESOME! as always!
Great pics John, and ........uh............keep that white stuff up there......a lil longer. :wink:
