After doing a fly in hunt this September to the North I have a real itch to get back up there for a longer trip. Although unsuccessful this year we all fell in love with the scenery.
I am debating a horseback trip with one of the three known transporters (steamboat, tetsa, AA) or to do a fly in, float out hunt along the Prophet. The benefit of the latter being cheaper in the long run. In a dream world I would own horses and go where I want, but that isn't happening for now.
I have no river experience and no gear for it, but I am experienced in the mountains and do frequent backpack trips yearly. I'd love info for anything related to floating. Stores, forums, websites etc.
My focus is for meat, elk or moose. That said, I will most certainly chase a good Ram or Billy at any point along the way.
I have read every past thread I can find on the area and float trips in general, but I'd love to get in contact with anyone who has done it, Prophet or any river. Feel free to PM me or get back here. I do already know which landing strip I plan to be dropped at and know of a few others in the area.
Thanks!
