[QUOTE="wjschmaltz, post: 341783, member: 6150"] I'm basically down to elk and antelope so I just need to decide when to burn my pile of Wyoming points. Maybe in a few years when the kids are a bit older and it's less stress on my wife to be gone. The big ones that require a guide as an AK nonresident (in case I move) are done so I'm sitting pretty! [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] The Super Ten is one animal from each category: Deer Moose Bear Sheep Mtn Lion Caribou Bison/Musk Ox Mtn Goat Elk Antelope The grand slam would be all 4 sheep and I'm not sure, but I would guess it would cost around $150-$200K. Stones alone are up to $60K. Dalls are around $30K. And both Desert and Rocky Mtn big horns are above $50K. That's obviously guided and not if you're a resident where some of the sheep live or if you can draw a tag that doesn't require a guide. Luckily I was able to get my Dall for the cost of a couple tanks of gas. I don't expect to hunt any of the other 3 in my lifetime unless I get lucky and win a raffle or something. I saw in Hunt Alaska magazine a few years ago about people chasing their "Alaska Slam" and I'm not even sure what that would be. I will probably try to get all 5 deer some day. Just have a coues and columbia left and both of them can be done pretty reasonable and live in neat places. The Game and Fish office in Bethel is only about 3 people and the guy I was with knew each of them very well from flying them for animals surveys and stuff. So we were able to use the can during business hours and planned dropping the cosby kids off around that! [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] Those of us that can't draw moose or big horn tags on our first try have to make due ;) [/QUOTE]
