where i hunt in pa is the most remote area in the state. that said it would be hard to be more than
a half mile or so from a road or some type of a power or pipeline. using a compass and plotting a coarse
is a requirment in obtaining a charter captains licence and a reason many fail. or at least used to fail
when the test was only given by the u s coast guard. knowledge is the answer to most questions.
i had a very good friend who by his hard work was able to take an alaskan hunt in the early 70s.
it was a guided hunt with 2 hunters and 2 guides who worked for a well known outfitter. they were dropped off by float plane
on the shore of a lake where they made their main camp. bottom line of a long story is my friend never made it home from the hunt and was never seen again. he left a wife and 3 sons.
