The hunt is a pilgrimage back to the origins of mankind. The hunt is where we first learned to improvise, build tools, and work as a team to carry out complex plans. The hunt was our first education, our first job, and the stakes for success were the lives of our families who relied on us to bring meat home at the end of the day. To hunt is to participate in nature rather than to merely observe it. Every detail of nature takes on a whole new meaning when we make the step from Observer to Participant. The hunter is observant of the wind and its track of scent, the clouds and a looming storm, the darting scurry of a mouse or weasel, the scent of fall and waning seasons, the suns approach of the day’s horizon. These burn into the mind and become a part of the hunter, for a successful hunter must be the keenest observer, focusing on the surroundings and beyond the self. This scrutiny of the surroundings brings an awareness, appreciation, and respect for the natural environment and all its inhabitants. To Alaska wolverine hunts is more than to pursue the animal, it is to pursue a union with nature that cannot be experienced along any other path and to find the very roots of our human character.
The best hunting trips for couples offered by Wrangell Outfitters are targeted toward the sportsman who wants a very classic and exclusive experience. The hunting area that we use is an exclusive Federal Concession within the Wrangell, St. Elias National Park Preserve. Wrangell Outfitters is the only company that can contract Alaska wolf hunts for this area. Horses are used to access the distant corners of the hunting area and help to create the nostalgic feel of the classic Alaskan Safari. We do not look at nature as our enemy or adversary. The concept of "man vs wild" is as foreign to a true bush man as the concept of "man vs living room" would be to any man who lives a house.
