Dall Sheep
Hunt DS822
$14,500 DALL SHEEP HUNT
PRIVATE CONCESSION IN WRANGELLS
This is a small family operation with a very personal touch.
This outfitter has exclusive rights for two
bordering concessions in
2012 and 2011 were both tough years due to the lack of full curl rams. Large numbers of sheep were seen, but just not quite legal. In fact, the outfitter saw a large band of 60 rams in July, when they are bunched up, and it looked like only 2 were legal. This may have resulted from a couple bad winters 8 and 9 years ago, possibly killing off the lamb crop. 2012 resulted in 7 hunters taking 5 rams and in 2011 6 hunters took 3 rams. 2010 saw some extreme weather conditions, but they still took 8 rams for 10 hunters. In 2009 all 8 hunters took rams and over the previous 10 years all HCU customers have scored on full-curled rams.
10-day 1x1 hunts are $14,500 starting August 10 and
continuing into early September. The outfitter is well known for his
legendary flying skills. His father ran this outfit before him and he
grew up at base camp. Now he raises his family there and does the
flying himself. Hunters fly into
Dan Banbury with his good ram with his uncle Irv.
Chuck Chanadet with his big ram.
