ALASKA RANGE DALL SHEEP HUNTING GEAR LIST

(when a number is listed it is a minimum recommendation)

• Keep in mind when mountain hunting every ounce counts.  You are required to carry your own pack up the mountain. People pay more for gear that is lighter in weight (the saying is $100 per ounce less of gear).
• Alaska State Hunting License and Required Tags
• Rifle/Ammo (1 box)
• Binoculars
• Head Lamp and/or Small Flashlight
• Knife
• Mountaineering Boots (ex. Scarpas, lowas, Kennetreks, Mendels, Crispi)
• Camp Shoes (Light weight shoes but I prefer crocs because they are light weight, comfortable in camp and are great for hiking in or used to hike/cross creeks or rivers)
• Rain Jacket/Pants (recommend Kuiu Chugach or Sitka Systems mountain rain gear or similar)
• Soft Shell Jacket
• Medium Weight Top (1)
• Synthetic Down jacket or Heavy Weight Top or Hoody (1)
• Medium Weight Pant (2)
• Base Layer (2) or Puffy Jacket and Pants

de of your pack it’s your choice. Ex. – (Kuiu, Sitka, Barneys, Stone Glacier)

• Lightweight Dry Bag (at least one big one for stuff and a pack cover)

• Sleeping Pad
• Boot Gaiters

• Trekking Poles (not required but are very helpful when traveling with a heavy pack)
• Gloves (1 pair for warmth and 1 for wear and tear ex. mechanics/leather)

• 7000+ cubic in the Mountaineering Pack (big enough to carry all your gear for your hunt.  You can go smaller and have your sleeping bag and pad on the outside if preferred)

Extra Toiletry Recommendations:

• For any of the clothing I highly recommend you check out Kuiu Gear. Everything I have used so far I have been very impressed with. There are other brands to look at for things as well such as Sitka Systems, Stone Glacier, Barneys Sports Chalet(Anchorage, AK  local guide/hunting gear) Kryptec, and many new ones I’m unfamiliar with.
