I just got back from a trip to POW hunting deer and I thought I would put up the pics and info in case anyone else is considering a hunt there.
We flew out of DFW saturday morning and arrived in Ketchikan that afternoon. The weather was pretty rainy and dark. All the locals informed us that we had missed summer by a week because it was sunny the week before. Bummer. The plan was to use a float plane to drop us off at a high country lake for 7 days and hike around above treeline and find some velvet alpine bucks. We talked to our pilot and he told us that nobody was flying anywhere the day we arrived due to weather. We got a hotel room at the Edgewater Inn just north of town because it was close to the dock where our plane was at. The next morning we met the pilot on the dock at 5:30 and he said we could go somewhere for sure but it might not be the lake I had picked out because the ceiling was too low. We opted to get out there rather than try to wait for weather to clear up.
