DON MULLIGAN - SOLO HUNTING IN ALASKA

Don Mulligan is one of America’s few remaining outdoor writers, photographers or personalities who still hunts and fishes the old fashioned way. He never uses guides, outfitters, dogs, ATVs, or pack animals, nor does he hunt managed game ranches. Though much of his work originates from his home and 200 acre wildlife habitat in Indiana, Don travels North America every year in search of true do-it-yourself adventures in the continent’s most rugged and remote locations.

For the past seven years Don has arranged drop-offs in the Alaskan wilderness to hunt, fish and survive. He has spent four weeks alone in the Alaskan interior, where he has hunted, butchered and carried out moose, caribou, bears, wolves and massive fish in Alaska, as well as survived numerous brushes with death.

Don will share his adventures in Alaska, from what to expect from a hunt in the last frontier to how to set up your own adventure. He will teach future adventurers how to handle a charge from a 1500 pound coastal brown bear, as well as how to handle being lost or stranded alone in the wilderness. He will also instruct as to what to expect financially, emotionally, and physically from a do-it-yourself hunt and what specialized gear and arrangements need to be made.

A former weekly outdoor feature and photography contributor to the Sunday Indianapolis Star newspaper, Don currently writes a weekly column for several smaller papers in Indiana. He also regularly contributes to several regional and national outdoor publications.

Don will be joined by Alaska bush pilot, Mike McCrary. Mike has been flying bush planes in Alaska for 30 years and has seen it all! He will share his insights regarding past and present game issues in Alaska. See seminar schedule.
