No rim shots though, save them for that comedy thread.

All right, we got that figured out! Great photo no doubt WR....congrats!
I'd suggest next contest maybe kids only first, and have adults separate.
All those kid photos were great too !

Thanks all, and thanks FishUSA for the contest.
Definitely a trip that I will never forget. 7 Grizzlies under 100yds. Leak in the raft with a busted pump, no satellite phone, and 100 mile float to extraction. All worth it with the mass amounts of fish.

You might want to reconsider a satellite phone in the future. Had a friend I worked who's life was saved by having a satellite phone. He was attacked and mauled seriously, by a female Grizzly with cubs, while hunting Elk in Montana a few years ago. Lucky to be alive today! His story was in the Sports Afield magazine. That phone was his life link in that recluse area.
WR feel free to post and share more photos some day..... sounds awesome.

I will def have to share more photos. Floated the Arolik River two years prior and had a satellite phone. Planned on renting one for this trip as well, but all the satellite phones were out with the Moose guides. Our outfitter specializes in hunts and also rents gear for unguided float trips. Fishermen get second pick and I don't blame them, moose hunts are upwards to 15k compared to the 2k they make off fisherman. The day after we were dropped off, one of our outfitters planes was involved in a mid air collision. Scary to think about. http://www.ktuu.com/content/news/Recovery-efforts-continue-for-bodies-of-mid-air-plane-crash-victims-392062831.html
