    I've heard the charter companies have an agreement with the outfitter. (Just hear say tho)
    The outfitter is part owner of alpine lakes air so they may not encourage landings at bug lake. Cold fish is pretty much the same for access anyway. They are generally courteous to residents in general though. if you have to go to bug lake I'd suspect the pilots out of dease would take you there. Pm me for ideas on other lakes Seems like everyone heads to cartmel and cold fish. There are options.....

    I don't know why you'd want to fly into bug Lake. It's only a short hike from coldfish where the bc parks camp is. There you have nice cabins, running water, cook facilities and hot showers...to look forward to when you get back to base camp.

    Good thread and I hope to have a great time up there as well as I drew the same tag, we will likely head up for the August 15th opening of Caribou. Some of the areas mentioned here seem to be the popular areas to hit first. Does anyone know how long of a hike form Coldfish to Donahue pass with packs on? Is it an 8 hour or longer hike for a guy in average to better shape?
    Is there sheep in the direction of Caribou mountain which is the opposite direction of the ecological reserve?
    Do'nt rush your shot, that's when the work starts.

    Danihue pass is around 4 hours from Cold Fish. My five year old son did it! We saw rams up on top west of the pass, but still in the eco reserve.
