Planning a trip for 2024 this episode was just what I needed. Thank you!
Before I moved up here, the cheapest way to take meat back to the lower 48 was always just pack it in 50lb boxes and fly with it, was considerably less than shipping. I haven’t looked at it in a while so I can’t say if it’s still that way or not.
This is so helpful and informative. I am planning an Alaska trip for 2024 and this is one of the key cost/problems I was running into. Thank you so much
I'm planning for 2023 lol, I might delay to 2024
I have always wondered about this part of a hunting trip! Getting your meat home. Thank you, guys! As always, awesome and informative content.
This hunt has been a life long dream for me and the information you guys are sharing is priceless. The couple times I have talked to you guys at the Western Hunting Expo you guys have been more than willing to talk to anyone that talks to you, even Hillary and Suzanne.
Right on guys, good info, a lot of planning in advance is necessary for these hunts.
Getting the meat out is always top priority of any hunt. I think a lot of people don’t plan for this fact going out of their home states. Over my hunts to other states I have learned a lot over the years. There is nothing like connecting with the locals. I now have connections for meat storage in a lot of the states now for literally offering up a few steaks. My Dad had done the float trips in AK before the current situation and it was affordable to drive. They would load full size freezers and mounted a generator on the bumper of the truck to run the freezers. Also the hassles now at the borders weren’t like the current state. Air cargo is the way to go out of AK. It isn’t free but if making a trip of a lifetime budgeting extra money for transporting the meat/horns is a must. You are paying for the convenience with air cargo and the fact that it will be put in a freezer until you pick it up is priceless. Also the advice of getting the right person in the shipping office can make a lot of difference. Be persistent but not abrasive will get better results. Great podcast!
Thanks 🙏 for breaking this down for many of us. It is probably the most mental block or obstacle for those who dream of hunting Alaska. Especially beasts that have antlers vs say a bear 🐻 which would be cool too.
I was blessed to win a waterfowl hunting 🦆and salmon/halibut/cod fishing 🎣 trip for Sept of 21, 9 months after my beloved Momma passed to Heaven.
It was my first flight ✈️ ever and I packed a little more than I should have which cost more. The trip through TSA with our shotguns and ammo (which we just locked 🔒 and put in our luggage 🧳) went smoother than we expected.
For the return flight ✈️ was more of a hassle for us since we got delayed then cancelled in Anchorage. Waiting in line for hours to transfer flights. All the while our 50 lb fish box 📦 as you mentioned is sitting there with frozen salmon, cod, black bass, and brant goose and the ptarmigan that I wanted to get mounted. Then a 6 hour layover in Seattle. Thankfully the flight to Pittsburgh, PA was only 4 hours and most importantly was that our meat was still frozen with a little bit of thaw, but not much.
I definitely want to do the moose and caribou trip, but that’s going to be a while.
Thanks 🙏 again for sharing your experience. Stay Gritty
Very informative podcast! Can you cover your transportation into and out of the backcountry and how you coordinated that?
Drove to Alaska with a freezer and small generator in the back of my truck and used that to haul my moose back to Utah two years ago. Everything fit in the freezer and made it home in great shape. If I were to do this again, I would process the meat in Alaska like you guys did because trying to get a block of frozen moose quarters out of the freezer back home was a nightmare! My son was first in line for his flight home with the skull and antlers so no problems there. The drive to/from Alaska is something I can't wait to do again!
Have brought meat home from AK many times...not game meat but fish, very similar process. We filet our fish on the river then vacuum pack and get it in freezer as soon as we get back to camp. We buy fish boxes and the day of our flight home box up the frozen filets, weigh the boxes and duct tape them up. We check them as checked bags...no cheaper way to do it and no dry ice needed. Even in July/Aug the fish is still frozen solid when we get back home, never had an issue.
What absolutely great information! Thanks for all the valuable details that truly will save people money. Back in 2014 an Alaska resident friend and I did a European mount of my caribou before I flew home. We built a lightweight create to ship it to Colorado and that little jewel cost me $750 back then. The only benefit for me was having it 'wall ready', but I think your approach is far superior. Thanks for sharing.
KEEP ON KEEPING ON!!!!!!!! AWESOMENESS!!!
Great discussion guys! I went to Kodiak in November for Sitka Blacktails. Only had one 50 lb. box. With my Alaska credit card I was charged $70 total for my oversized checked bag and meat. All went smooth as silk.
Just watch the hunt series and found this EP just as educational !!
Ryan your hair blends in perfectly with the Tahr fur! Color and texture!
Interesting listening to your process. Four of us went up in 1996. We shipped four caribou home in waxed boxes no issues. Alaska airlines did lose one gun case with two rifles and one duffel bag of gear. Left extreme bad taste for whole trip. My rifle is still listed as stolen. Airlines compensated us but lost rifle I had bought with paper route money as a kid. Rifle was priceless to me, still hurts.
Been up north for 2 successful moose hunts and we’ve had awesome luck using Alaska Air Cargo instead of flying it with us. I think the price was $200 for a pallet last year, we had meat processed and put a new chest freezer on a pallet and plugged it in for everything to freeze. Brought it to Air Cargo and they used a forklift and it took 2 minutes. Said they haven’t had anyone do that before and it was a killer idea. Expensive shipping stuff to SE AK. Not sure about out of state stuff
Very useful and informative video cast here! Greatly appreciated!
This was very informative, things you don't see on other shows, and everyone is wondering what it takes to pull off an epic hunt. On another note I was able to score a headlamp by being on Gritty's email list, definitely worth everyone's time and they only send important messages, no spam.
Thank you Chad! We truly appreciate your support.
Awesome info thanks for the ideas on how to make an Alaska trip more affordable!! Great content
Our pleasure!
trash compactor bags are much better than contractor bags. have to pay attention to the size (gallons) and opening size.. they tend to be a little more narrow, but much better at containing leaks, condensation, etc.
I’ve been looking for videos on the hunt Alaska topic. Great job guys on the info provided. Could you guys put together a cost breakdown of transportation from airport to hunt location and that whole process.
So want to go and do this trip, definitely feel intimidating never doing it. Listening to your this helps a little.... but there is always doubt until done.Thanks for this, it helps!!!
Loved your mating call lmfao, got them moose running for you hahaha. You guys are the best.
Very informative video with real world costs for getting meat and antlers home. Can you provide how much the total trip was and a detailed breakdown of expenses? Would love to do one of these hunts!!
Super good information. The one thing that I've been wondering is how to e-scout for a trip like this.
Helpful podcast for sure!
I wish we’d have had this video before heading up with our fiasco 😅 For those who don’t know, linear inches is not a single measurement of width. It is the width+length+depth. Alaska air also only will fly one set of antlers per flight now- on a first come, first serve basis. So even if ours had been small enough, there was a guy who got there just before us so ours wouldn’t have gone on that flight anyways. Hope this helps someone else not stand at the airline checkin at 1am with a giant bull only to get rejected because on the phone, Alaska air said “oh yeah, 71” is less than the linear measurement so you can check it as a bag no problem” turns out- you cannot 😂
GREAT INFO! I forgot about the “first come, first serve” thing. Best to use Air Cargo altogether and avoid the airline issues. But that’s what you get for shooting a 71” moose! 👊🏼😜
When we flew back with our caribou, we had to split the skulls due to space. It didn’t sound like you had to do that? We also used air cargo, it it didn’t go as smoothly as your experience unfortunately. We did check our meat and it worked well. Thanks for the info.
More great content, you guys are awesome 😎 hey do you ever donate any of the meat to local food banks ..?
Any more details on the air cargo shipment of your skulls and antlers? You said you had to wrap the points and used cardboard, but did you also wrap the skulls in cardboard? Trying to picture the final product that you handed over...would love to see pics. Wondering why they will ship it this way but taxidermists seem to want to crate euros which greatly adds $$$$ to things
I would love to see how you guys process and wrap your animals. Do you do the same cuts as and elk? Do you guys do a lot of roasts and steaks or grind more.
Super informative!
Great Info guys! thanks!
Love the content gentlemen. Keep up the great work Brian 🥂
I have brought fish back from Alaska many times. More info or pictures of how you brought antlers back would be a big help. You sait you used a lot of cardboard but the explanation was more like the antlers are just open.
Great stuff as always.
thanks very helpful and lots of good information. What about during the float what did you put meat in to keep dry, I would think there would be a lot of water splash while floating? But I would think plastic bags would be bad because it would retain the moisture. Were any of the antlers in velvet and if so how did you keep those from rotting during the float and hunt. thanks again, you guys are awesome
Hey guys! When you took the packaged meat to the freezer. Did you pull out the packages, and spread them out to get a good freeze? I made a mistake one year, with deer burger meat. I had it all in a cardboard box. I put the whole box in the freezer. The outer packages of meat froze, and insulated the interior packages of meat! Unfortunately, I ended up with spoilage!
This was so informative! Great stuff. Thank you all and merry Christmas
Thank you and Merry Christmas to you as well.
Love the video, thank you for your guys work.
Lots of good info here
Thanx fellas! :D
As usual you guys don't disappoint
The PNW isn’t what it used to be which is too bad.
Appreciate the discussion on storing and shipping game back to the lower 48.
Was hoping to see a video of Brian dropping a moose in this series!
with all these different species you guys have the privilege of taking you guys should do a couple cooking podcast/ videos would be interesting to see best ways to cook bear, chamois, tahr, moose caribou. I'd watch the heck out of that. keep up the good work love the content!
Screw the hair haters ... you doing you is why my husband and I love watching the hunts & taking the StHealthy supplements as well. Stay safe & thanks being yourself 👍 ✌️
Hats off to you guys for butchering 4 caribou and a moose in two days plus boil skulls. That's a lot of work, not a lot will do
Don’t know if I will ever make it to Alaska but I’d love too!
Thanks for the info fellas! Does anyone here have any experience shipping or checking meat and heads on Delta from AK to Salt Lake? Headed up this fall, already have Delta airfare booked and trying to get ahead of the ball. Thanks again.
Did You Know?
That the longest living black bear in the wild was recorded by the Minnesota Game Commission and it was a 39 1/2 year old sow. Which ended up dying of old age. WOW!
Just like an elk bugle, doesn’t have to be perfect😂😂 better than mine would have been Brian. 😂
I got no idea what a "Fish Box" is... can you link or explain that? Also, when you froze the meat, were the bags in these fish boxes? and was the box sealed up and taped up before it was frozen, or afterward? Thanks for the vids, great stuff.
Its a wax lined cardboard box that keeps temp for awhile longer.
I would love to see the reactions as those moose antlers were unloaded off the plane and you grab it
Thanks for all the great info gentlemen; stay thrifty!
Dude Ryan’s greasy hair and beard are the epitome of GRITTY!
Very helpful insights here. I may have missed the information so I am assuming the airport and area/town you where working out of for shipping logistics in alaska is Anchorage ??
We didn't specify the airport.
What are you using to wrap your meat to freeze?
Interesting, Air Cargo makes it sound like it has to be in a hard sided crate of sorts..
Would of been nice to see pictures or video of antler/meat packages
Time to cut the hair Ryan! 😂😂😂😂
Good info to have even if not going to Alaska. Also good to know for sure Ryan doesn't dye his beard.
Where in the Rocky mountains an what State do ya ll hunt those big Black Bears. Plz n thx. Really enjoy all ya lls video s
Thank you for your support. We do our best to not disclose locations for many reasons. Thanks for tuning in. We can't thank you enough.
Sad sate of washington indeed. It was sad you abandoned us Ryan but i totally understand.
Totally agree, can't decide if Gritty or Yellowstone is my favorite. Gritty is winning I think though.
Sweet Jesus!!! I knew Lampers dyed his beard. I called this out last year in a video...
What's not to like about hunting in Washington?!?! 3000 dudes in a single unit looking for that one magical true spike that is the only thing legal? Isn't that the definition of elk hunting?? Sigh...
Just 3000. Come on down to Utah. We can all hold hands and sing together. 🥴
You guys cut and grind all your own meat just as I. Do you cut your burger with beef fat or anything of the sort? A podcast on some of your and your famileys favorite dishes would be great to here also.
You guys aren't a whoollleeee lot for 111k subs, you deserve a Netflix series. Keep grinding, y'all produce the best hunting content anywhere, it'll come
Question?? If I get a gift card , does that give me entrys as apparel?
Yes, a gift card gets you entered into the giveaway. Thanks for asking Ken!
How about giving away an in-reach with a class to use it
Hey, ease up on Washington would ya? haha
2:00 minutes is you said big package!,
Looking at brian on utube with that hide behind him at makes me think maybe he needs to grow his grey hair out like Ryan’s ,,, lol , I really enjoyed the hunt you guys went on ,,,
Gritty hats are still sold out 😕
We just got a small shipment in. Go ahead and check right now!
Don't worryRyan how you look modern day mountain man If you need a stylus/camera man I'm available and I to are from north west
Bidens gas prices?? LMAO did you guys figure out price per pound? Just wondering. Great podcast thanks
I was able to stomach 10 minutes of a teenage girl discussion
Very informative youngsters
invaluable info! Thanks guys.
