Journey 24
Caribou hunt August 19 -25, 2006
On August 19 a 14 year old from Montrose, CO. and his father
traveled to Quebec, Canada to hunt Caribou. This young man is currently
fighting a form of Lymphoma. They flew from Montrose to Canada and had
to take a charter flight in a seaplane to get to the hunting camp. The
hunt was successful and this young man harvested not one but two
caribou. Two caribou are allowed per tag. This young man got the
largest caribou that was taken in camp. They had a great time and were
able enjoy several other experiences during their stay in camp before
their return home. These included fishing, scouting with the guide for
the next group of hunters, hunting ptarmigan (a type of grouse like
bird), gathering and eating wild blueberries. On their return home the
young man was able to sit next to the pilot in the cockpit of the
seaplane, he thought that was" really cool". The hunt was provided by
Jack Hume Adventures.
