Double Shovel Outfitters

Double Shovel Outfitters specializes in fly-in only hunts across three federal exclusive guide concessions in Arctic Alaska. They hunt:

• •Caribou - fall hunts
• •Moose - fall hunts
• •Grizzly Bear - spring hunts
• •Black Bear (baited) and wolf as secondary opportunities

Their high success rate comes from extreme remoteness and small group sizes. Rather than focus on numbers alone, they emphasize hunts as once-in-a-lifetime wilderness experiences where you won't encounter other hunting parties.

Double Shovel Outfitters offers guided Arctic raft trips on the Porcupine, Coleen, and Sheenjek rivers within the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Trips use 14-foot self-bailing rafts accommodating 2-3 clients and one guide per boat. Guests set their own pace, with time for hiking and fishing while exploring Brooks Range tributaries and remote canyons.

For experienced river travelers planning unguided trips, they provide:

• •Self-bailing rafts and oar frames
• •SOAR inflatables and river rafting gear
• •Bear-proof containers, tents, kitchen sets
• •Trip logistics planning and gear consultation
• •Shuttle services for Arctic river trips

Charlie Jagow, a registered Alaskan guide featured on Discovery Channel's The Last Alaskans, exemplifies Double Shovel's team. Born and raised in northern Alaska, he ran the family trapline with dog teams, built his own remote log cabin, and flies his own airplane to access it.

Double Shovel works exclusively with seasoned Alaskan guides who understand Arctic wilderness hunting and navigation at the highest level.
