Greg McHale's Wild Yukon
There's always a thrill when I open up an animal a There's always a thrill when I open up an animal and find the bullet on the hide. A very knowledgeable fellow once told me how a well-performing bullet will pass through an animal, maintaining structural integrity and mass, and come to rest inside the hide on the opposite side. Time and again I've retrieved a bullet, right where old Bill said it would be.⁠
What's your go-to calibre and bullet for big-boned animals like moose and bison?⁠
These animals were taken with my @gunwerks ClymR in 300 WM shooting 180 gr bullets.⁠

If you're heading to Alaska, Yukon or the Northwes If you're heading to Alaska, Yukon or the Northwest Territories for your first northern mountain hunt, ensure you have your clothing dialled in for the reality of the north. You may be enjoying lounging in your backyard, sipping a Pina Colada or cruising the Strip, blasting the A/C in your Corvette. The north is different. We use air conditioning to speed up the de-icing of the windshield. We wear long underwear every day of the hunting season. We worry about snowstorms like you worry about the Dairy Queen running out of vanilla ice cream.⁠
We took these photos in August. Don't get me wrong. I'm not complaining. I love the weather in the north as it keeps people away!⁠

🎉🎉 IT'S GIVEAWAY TIME 🎉🎉⁠ Every moos 🎉🎉 IT'S GIVEAWAY TIME 🎉🎉⁠
Every moose hunt I go on is the hunt of a lifetime. Being out on the land, calling and spotting big bull moose is so natural, so exciting, and so much fun, that I'm grateful more people don't know about it. If people understood how good a moose hunt is, we'd be overrun with hunters. So this is our little secret: We're giving away a moose hunt, along with an incredible package of prizes, to a lucky winner. Head to the link in my bio, enter now and cross your fingers. If it's you, I'll guide you on your hunt with @yukonstoneoutfitters!⁠
Good luck!⁠

Thank you to my partners, who are making this giveaway possible: @kuiu_official, @vortexoptics, @gunwerks, and ⁠

There was no easy way into the sheep hills. This l There was no easy way into the sheep hills. This little chute was the only path through steep cliffs for many miles. We were treated to the incredible colours of the rock, but we took each step with the worry that a waterfall or some other feature would block our progress. The rocks were not only slippery, but the rock walls were chossy: nothing was stable enough to pull on. I wasn't looking forward to reaching an impassable spot and heading back down to look for a better way. At this point, we still had ten days of provisions, so these packs aren't light. We had the courage to push on and were rewarded with a beautiful ram and ten days of suffering. This is what I live for!⁠

Where was the most beautiful place you've hunted?⁠
⁠
If I could return to one of the most beautiful places I've been fortunate enough to hunt in, this goat hunting area would be at the top of the list. We were able to glass this billy from the valley bottom and didn't spend much time up on the hill where he lived. That’s a shame, as the views were incredible. I would love to make it back here and watch the sunrise from this mountain goat playground.⁠

Why am I looking up when I've already got a great Why am I looking up when I've already got a great ram on my back? Because I am always hungry for what's next, and there just might be another old ram up there. If there is, I will be back here next year. Are you satisfied with your accomplishments or are you hungry for more?⁠
Are you fortunate enough to be able to travel for Are you fortunate enough to be able to travel for a guided hunt? I've only ever been once on a guided hunt, and it was indeed a fantastic experience, from beginning to end. The hospitality I experienced with Canol Outfitters (@canoloutfitters) left nothing desired: wonderful company, a spectacular setting, unbelievable food, and storytelling that left me laughing or speechless. I bet you are already keen to travel there, and I haven't even begun to talk about the hunt itself. The team at Canol, and it truly is a team, are not only enthusiastic about the work but are also consummate professionals.⁠

Stay tuned to the Sportsman Channel in 2022 to see how this hunt shook out. Until you see the episode, these images and rearrange your bucket list to move "NWT Dall's Sheep Hunt" up a few rungs.⁠

I had the immense pleasure of hunting with an Arct I had the immense pleasure of hunting with an Arctic Nomad 22 from Yukon Expedition Sleds (@yukonsleds) on a recent bison hunt. I've used a few other sleds in my time, and this unit addresses every pain point I had and solved a few problems I didn't know about. Most of my followers don't know what a skimmer is and probably won't ever need one, but those who hunt in winter conditions with snow machines know about skimmers. You also understand how they can tip over, become detached from your machine, fill with snow, and throw your gear out. The Arctic Nomad does none of these. Paired with the ingenious ROK Strap (@rokstraps and @rokstrapcanada), piling equipment in is a breeze, and nothing will shake loose. Whether it's a hind quarter or a camera bag filled with expensive and delicate lenses and camera bodies, this skimmer did an incredible job of letting me focus on hunting and not on being a loadmaster. Like all the gear I use, I wanted a skimmer that simply did the job I needed it to do. From the beginning of the trip to the end, this was an incredible tool that I can heartily recommend.⁠

A moment of peace before the leg-busting decent. I A moment of peace before the leg-busting decent. I'd kayaked down a vast and windy lake with waters so cold it would have been a near-death experience to capsize to get to this point. I'd jumped off a cliff onto a glacier. I'd risked life and limb to ascend the sketchiest of sketchy slopes and braved swarms of mosquitoes (trust me, they were terrible). We'd ascended 1400m and sat on this ram for more than a day awaiting the hunting season's opening. Shortly after this, one of my teammates managed to kick a massive stone down the hill. Unaware of my whereabouts, I was lucky to keep my head intact as I watched the rock tumble by. At this moment, I am feeling a sense of gratitude to the ram and the mountains for allowing me to experience a life of adventure, hardship and reward.⁠
Of course, I am also grateful to leave this hill with an incredible broomed ram as my trophy, but when I tell the story of this hunt, the trophy is, at best, the icing on the cake. Hunting is so much more than the calibre of the animals I take.⁠

Double Trouble: Wood Bison in the Yukon⁠
⁠
Greg's father, Brent, and his good friend, Ryan, head out on snow machines for an iconic and challenging northern hunt: For wood bison. Some of the winter's coldest temperatures greet the team as they struggle to stay warm and safe through a bone-chilling deep freeze. If you've ever seen a bison hunt, you know that the challenges are immense. With two shooters looking to take two bulls out on this one, what could go wrong?⁠

If it takes a village to raise a child, it also ta If it takes a village to raise a child, it also takes a team to bring a bison home. We took this magnificent bison on a recent trip, and it's the foresight and hard work of those who came before us we have to thank. Roughly 250 bison are taken annually by hunters, and that's an immense number of freezers and plates filled with this delicious meat. First introduced to the Yukon in the late 1980s, the population has grown from 170 to over 1200, with hunters harvesting over 1900 bison.⁠
Bison is hunting that almost anyone can do, including school groups who head out on the land each year to learn about the place they call home. I believe that the harvesting of bison reduces pressure on other species, especially moose, as the tremendous quantity of meat on a bison is plenty for a single family for a year.⁠
