Overall Impression: worst hunt Ive been on

Although I contracted for a 2X1 hunt, for the caribou, it was 5 hunters with two guides most of the time. Once I got my caribou, it was difficult to get the guide to stay out in the field even though I was the only hunter going for moose. Excuses included, it's too windy, the truck needs to be looked at, etc. It seemed he wanted to socialize with the other guides who were finished for the week. Repeated letters to Ron Parsons have gone unanswered, I've gotten no response except to acknowledge receipt of my original letter of complaint. Yet Peterson's Hunting continues to rave about this outfitter, one of their larger advertisers.
