Alaska Hunting
Death Knocks Twice
The Caribou Hills region of the Kenai Peninsula in Alaska can be a forbidding place to hunt. The mountains are windswept, treeless and extremely cold, an area only fit for Dall Sheep, while the lower elevations enjoy thick Amazon-style brush which makes excellent moose habitat. Hunters from around the world come to hunt the great bulls that seem to blend with their surroundings as if they were wearing the very best camo attire in the woods.
