Armin Voigt with his 54 Inch 2008 Alaskan Bull MooseArmin Voigt with his 54 Inch 2008 Alaskan Bull MooseIf you've been looking for an  "Extremely Remote" self guided Moose and Big Game Hunting area that has had little hunting pressure then this is the hunt for you.

You and your hunting partners will be flown to an extremely remote wilderness river where there are many unknowns.

This hunt is not for the weak in mind, body or soul. Portages are very much a reality as well as dangerous sweepers, log jambs and more!

The Alaskan Bull moose not only has the largest antlers in North America but it also has the largest body. On this hunt you can also hunt for black bear, wolf & wolverine.Camping on a moose float huntCamping on a moose float hunt

Many Boone & Crockett and Pope & Young record book animals are taken each year in Alaska.

This self-guided float hunt takes place about 300 miles west of Anchorage, Alaska. All Bull Moose taken must have an antler spread of 50" or more, or have at least four brow tines on one side.

Over the years many bull moose have been taken in this general hunting area with racks from 50" to 70" or more. Racks from 65" to 70" or more are very possible.
