Seminar Descriptions
I have had the pleasure of introducing literally thousands of hunters to the ins and outs of do-it-yourself Alaska float and drop-camp hunting since 1991. My seminars offer something for both experienced and novice Alaska hunters. What follows is a brief overview of some of the most popular topics.
I am also available for private seminars. EMAIL ME for details.
