Dang mark are you getting a polar bear next??? That would be a trip of a lifetime. Especially at that deal.

Years ago my uncle acquired a mounted head that was abandoned at customs.

The permit up for grabs was actually supposed to be my buddy’s. He wasn’t cleared to fly after eye surgery. Same guides, same area. Unbelievable adventure

Your hands look tiny. What an experience that must have been.

Thumbs up

Man what a beast

I know 25k is a deal but that’s a chunk of change

Post pics when you get your bear back.

Hey that is pretty close to where I’m being transferred, I’m currently on the mainland close ish to Cambridge bay but I’m getting transferred to a mine near rankin inlet. I didn’t get to see any polar bears yet because we have barren lands grizzlies around here, I was hoping to see polar bears, from a distance, in a truck.

That was a great deal on that hunt! I arrowed one in February, 2018 and it was one of the most memorable hunts I've done.
