HUNT Episode 4 - Pack Rafting with Caribou in Alaska - The Experience Project

[@ChadGustavson-nf8kq]

Did a caribou hunt in 2001 in Quebec when 9/11 happened and we were so far removed we had no idea it even occurred. Your video brought me back to the solace that still exists. Alaska is a must for me in the next few years. Thank you exo team for the content, the products, the education, and for inspiring us to keep living our dreams. Long time listener, k3/k4 pack owner!

WOW. That was the best set of shows i have ever seen. so well done and what an adventure. I thought the pod cast series was amazing but seeing the video of the hunt just brought it to a new level. Congratulations guys, that was a hunt of a lifetime. I can't wait to see the moose series.

[@LumberjackLogic]

Quite possibly the greatest videos I’ve watched on KZbin. Seriously, I can’t get enough and I can’t wait till the next episode drops. My friend and I are already making plans.

[@ForbiddenWellness]

Loved this episode! I’m so glad I invested into this company by buying a pack that will last me a long time! Thank you guys for living what you preach and pushing the limits! 🙏

[@redemptionhunting]

Another solid production! Way to leave the “Easy Button” at home!👍🏾

[@garrett2980]

All I could think about during the raft scene with the caribou antlers out front was "on Dasher, on Dancer, on Prancer and Vixen!"

[@NARSupplyCo.]

WATCHING THESE HAS BEEN EPIC!!!

[@markmckenzie1605]

Awesome adventure. Those rafts are mint.

[@ExoMtnGear]

Yeah they were absolutely critical to this hunt and being our first hunting trip with them we were extremely impressed. - Steve

[@briankrist4838]

Great fun. Done a 40 mile in the forager and loved it

[@quickdrysolutions4560]

Dang what an epic! Thanks for taking us along. Looking forward to the next one!

[@scottcrider6756]

These videos are absolutely epic! Loving this!

[@elkhunter111186]

Thanks for sharing this trip. This has been such an awesome film to watch and see the different style of diy hunt. What a grind.

[@TradTech]

Flipping awesome! You guys rock. What an episode!

[@123-JDAWG]

Looks like an absolutely amazing experience. Thank you for sharing with us. It has been really fun to follow along with these hunts.

[@scottburgess696]

Another epic adventure video guys! Having such a great group of positive attitude partners, communicating, testing the loaded rafts, ect makes for a trip that keeps everyone level headed, confident and as safe as an adventure like that can be. Stuff happens, but I admire how you presented the challenges in a way that sounded like everyone was on board and had a voice. Awesome video, thx for sharing and man-O-man, looked like a blast!

[@vancejohnson1778]

Great film guys i think its awesome to have all the post kill content in there its some of the beat parts of the hunt and when it shows the real work that goes into a hunt, absolutely amazing film looking forward to the moose and goat film!

[@toddfinoch]

Love it! Hope you have been doing well Mark!

[@burrito4x4]

Wow!!!! Looks like a blast!!! Would love to see a gear list from this hunt!

[@ExoMtnGear]

We need to get that done and will here in the coming month or so. - Steve

[@patrickmcclelland754]

Excellent job guys, what an adventure

[@wallow74]

So Rad! Thanks for taking us along.

[@gregs9187]

I'm not sure how this could get any better, but I can't wait to find out.

[@lukeu6672]

Awesome production value, neat adventure too. I hope you guys and JVB can all shake hands and enjoy a brewski together soon.

[@ExoMtnGear]

I’ve talked with him and I’ll be a guest on his podcast to tell truth about how the 6 Creed performed for us this year. And also argue the case for why small calibers might be the best choice for all around big game performance. He apologized to me for rushing to quick to publish his last podcast without fully understanding the facts. All is well and I’m excited to share our experiences to his audience and provide a different perspective. - Steve

[@lukeu6672]

That’s awesome glad to hear that. I think finding common ground and uniting as hunters is key in today’s landscape, and the future.

[@lukeu6672]

I would also add; imo influencers should encourage hunters to try the “cold bore challenge” to determine their ethical ranges with their rifles at game. That might alleviate some nuance with wind drift, recoil, and ethics around long range shooting. There are many examples of the concept on Rokslide. (I know long range shooting is a side discussion but still related, again just another way to find common ground).

[@ExoMtnGear]

@@lukeu6672 I completely agree. A cold bore challenge to people who think they can shoot an animal in mountain terrain at long distances and hit with a very high probability on the first shot would really open peoples eyes. We are actually in talks with NRL Hunter of doing or own Exo Mtn Gear version of a competition to prove this very point and help some people understand their true capabilities. - Steve

[@lukeu6672]

@@ExoMtnGear awesome can’t wait to see it Steve. Cheers.

[@gwhunt1023]

More? Wow!

[@jakemaule1901]

Epic adventure. I have an Alpacka Raft (Mule version) and have been looking for a hunting pack that will fit internally but most frames are too big. Looks like your packs fit no problem.

[@ExoMtnGear]

Yeah with the pack having some gear in it, it didn’t exactly slide right in but they definitely fit in there no problem. Let us know if you have any other questions. - Steve

[@clarkansas6590]

Very good

[@jonfrenzy]

Awesome experience, love seeing the video content on top of the podcasts. I probably missed it in the podcasts, but what was the reason why you all chose to float downriver? Did you end up at a different airstrip or was that the one you landed at initially?

[@ExoMtnGear]

Great question and one we didn’t cover at all. The airstrip we landed at was too short to get us and the Caribou out so we could only land on it. We needed to float downstream to a bigger one to take off with all the meat and antlers. - Steve

[@LemonekosCatVideos777]

are those mountain caribou? also, where exactly is that in alaska?

[@fv1291]

Does caribou taste like venison?

[@z987k]

It tastes like lichen.

[@martinfreitas952]

👏😎❤❤❤❤

[@MrGeoflo]

Never camp on a river bed!

[@ExoMtnGear]

Yeah we learned that lesson, in Alaska things can change much quicker than anywhere in the lower 48.
