I really fell in love with that place,,and will return in the future.

I just cant get over how good caribou meat is.

Mirage now has a butcher that processes your meat and then vacuum seals it and freezes it, all boxed up and ready for your trip home...Took us 33 hrs to get home and temps were in the 70's

we got home and all the meat was still frozen...

Oh, that makes me want to go so bad! I'd love to get a caribou; not for the mount necessarily, but for the meat!

For future reference, it is very simple to keep the original velvet on the racks. Just take "Velvet Tan" and a needle into camp to inject the antlers with. When you get home, just take it to your taxi and they can make sure it is good enough and then you are all set. I have 3 done that way and every one looks just like it did when I downed them.
