Please try to limit your weight to 75 pounds per person
and keep bags and boxes as small as possible. We use Super Cubs to fly most of our hunters
to their camps, and the planes do not have the space for large coolers, Rubbermaid totes,
etc. We usually leave your gun case at the airport until your return.
We also have Coleman fuel and propane canisters for sale at cost since the airlines do not
allow them to be shipped. Also, federal regulations prohibit the carrying of pepper spray
and bear repellents in passenger aircraft, so please leave it at home.
We may have left things off of the above list that you feel you need. In order to make
your hunt more enjoyable, please do not hesitate to bring anything else along that you
feel you need.
