If you're serious about documenting and sharing you should set up a blog somewhere. In the past I've recommended free sites like blogger but it's turned into a big steaming pile of *** since Google bought it.

One of my boys is a digital marketing manager and has set up domains on youtube, Instagram, Facebook, and a website. We have some content from the past couple years and will be trying to get some of it up shortly.
Good luck on the quest! I find it really fun to go new places and hunt new species...sometimes takes me years to figure out and arrow a new species but as mentioned it's the journey!
I agree, the research and planning are half the fun.
Good deal sounds like you are going to have many great adventures, and with people you care about. You may want to get after the bighorns sooner then later for some of the herds are declining and may get a little
harder to pursue them in the future.
Wishing you the best of luck and good luck to your daughter in her career choice.
I agree, bighorns and caribou are right up there.
Does anyone happen to have a list of lakes that B.C. Yukon won’t fly into? When I called them they basically said name the lakes you are interested in and they can tell you if they fly there. I know with their ownership there a few spots they won’t take you into.We used them last year, had a lake all picked out and as we were loading the plane the pilot told us that an outfitter had just set up camp on our lake. It wasn’t a deal breaker as we worked around it. I am just starting to research areas for a 2021 Caribou hunt and ideally would like to pick a lake that isn’t occupied by an outfitter and hopefully is in a area that holds caribou.

Our family pulled a couple of leh tags, my son got a cow elk for the Tuchodi ( should work nicely for our backpack hunt) and my daughter drew cow elk in 6-08 A for Jan 16 ( her birthday).
awesome, thanks for sharing
Just returned from our 12 day sheep hunt. One of my partners connected on a heavy old double broomer on day 6. He is not a member and I don’t want to post any pics without his blessing. I will be writing a full story once the dust settles between hunts.
I passed on 3 broomed rams, including the one we killed. I won’t shoot a sheep on age. I did find 3 full curls over the 12 days but just couldn’t put a stalk together without risking a kill shot with a 400 ft fall onto a rock field, or was hampered by wind and or dozens of eyeballs.
At 53 I had to train twice as hard as my 29 year old partners. Lost 8 lbs the month before the hunt and 14 lbs on the hunt itself. I have not been in this prime shape since I was 30. Went in with 63 lbs total gear weight before water and came out heavy.
My goal to hunt, harvest (participate) and pack out a stone sheep has been accomplished. Already planning next years sheep hunt.
Next on the bucket list challenge is a 10 day backpack hunt for elk with my 2 boys Sept 19th.
Be safe everyone!,,
Chuck
