Itinerary
What follows is a general flow of events. Expect the unexpected and prepare to be flexible.
July 5
Meet with your guide for a pre-trip meeting at 8 pm in Kotzebue Alaska. Lodging at Nulagvik Hotel.
July 6
We fly from Kotzebue north into the great wilderness of the Arctic searching for caribou. With luck we can find big groups from the air and can land in their path. If we can’t find them this day we will land in the mountains where the hiking is good and hope they come to us.
July 7
We spend our time exploring the area looking for caribou and other wildlife. Your guide will lead hikes in hopes we can place ourselves in a hidden location in the path of the caribou. There will be times when no caribou are present, but there is no end to the beauty of the arctic.
July 8
If the caribou have already passed though our area, or if our prediction of where they would be was slightly off; we will fly our camp to a new location (weather permitting).
July 9
Another full day to enjoy the solitude and beauty of North America’s greatest wilderness. More hiking and wildlife watching is the order of the day.
July 10
We say our last goodbyes and meet our bush pilot for our flight back to Kotzebue in time for your flights to Anchorage this evening.
