Here is a spectacular opportunity for your 2025 sheep hunt. This special permit area now includes all of the drawing permit areas of the Chugach Mountains in Alaska Game Management Units 13D, 14A, and 14C. With this permit, you can hunt any of these units, including Metal and Friday Creeks, Tazlina Glacier, and the coveted Ram Valley, Falls Creek, Eagle River, and Hunter Creek units within Chugach State Park. All of these units have had very limited hunting pressure for the last several years. Much of the Chugach has been on limited draw since 2008, and permits are in high demand. Many hunters are reporting complete solitude on their hunts, a situation not experienced since the glory days of the 1960s and 1970s.
Imagine pursuing multiple 40+ inch class Dall’s sheep through glaciers, high cirques, and snowcapped peaks, while walking on generations-old sheep trails by yourself.
This permit gives you the very real possibility to put a Dall’s ram from Alaska into the record books. Several recent Chugach permit holders harvested rams that broke the magic 170 inch mark, and many more have taken rams that scored in the mid to high 160s.
Finally, by purchasing this permit, you are supporting Alaska’s Dall’s sheep research program and making a critical contribution to sheep research and management in Alaska. New staff has been hired and are conducting research in the Alaska and Brooks ranges, and groundbreaking work continues in the Wrangell and Chugach mountains as well. We extend our thanks to WSF and the permit purchasers; we appreciate your support!
