Awesome!
What is the total price (flight, guide, lodging, etc) for a trip like that?

to put it simply, A LOT! The flight was $900 round trip to Fairbanks AK. Hotel for 2 days before and 2 days after the hunt $450, taxidermy (if I'm lucky enough to take all three) will be around $4500 plus the cost to air freight the antlers, horn, and hides home. Dad and I shipped 975 lbs. of meat home last time and that was around $1500. Plus the cost of the hunt itself, which is a nice chunk of change at $16,300 per person, that included flight into and out of camp from Fairbanks for us and all or gear and game, 16 days of hunting, food, and trophy care.
If you are looking at going, do it sooner rather than later. Most outfitters charge this much just for one species, and it isn't getting any cheaper.
