Image of Alaska Hunting Adventure: 700 Miles Alone DVD

  • Relive a solo 700-mile Alaskan adventure
  • Follow "Buck" Nelson as he hikes, hunts and rafts
  • Cross rocky divides in search of trophy Dall sheep
  • Watch Buck face angry grizzlies on a steep bank
  • 75 minutes of on-the-edge-of-your-seat entertainment
  • A 700-mile trip is substantial in many people's minds. But take away the car, throw in a backpack, rifle, raft, fishing gear and a remote drop-site in the middle of Alaska and you've got one heck of an adventure. This video captures Bruce "Buck" Nelson as he takes five long weeks on a solo hiking trek, hunting expedition and wild water ride through Alaska's formidable tundra and a richly stocked salmon stream. This rugged outdoorsman has staked his claim to fame by going beyond mere mortal boundries on his extremely remote adventures. Among some of his notable lifetime accomplishments, he cites smoke jumping since 1981, spending seven years in the National Guard, completing a coast-to-coast bicycle tour across the Southern US in 1993, reaching the summit of Mt. McKinley in 1991 and hunting various big-game species in the Alaska wilderness. On this trip, Buck crosses the divide in search of trophy Dall sheep, and you also will see breathtaking rafting scenes of a herd of magnificent bull caribou, including several record book candidates. Then, Buck will drift over calm pools full of salmon that send him scrambling for his fly rod. Next, watch him land exotic Arctic grayling and hungry pike and stalk a giant, powerful Alaskan bull moose. You'll even take it down river with Buck as he moves a raft full of meat and antlers. Hold your breath as he faces angry grizzlies that loom so close to a steep bank, you'll hear their jaws pop. 75 minutes.

    700 miles in review, November 26, 2008
    By OHIOBUCK from Doylestown, Ohio

    "Some say that this is amateur and slow at times, but that is the beauty of this expedition. This is REAL life hunting not a big bang production film that shows every monster after they have caged it in and fed it chickory steroids. This is the type of film that should get evrybody out of the house and attempting to take that once in a life time trip. It did for me."

    Alaska Hunting DVD, September 5, 2008
    By Jaybea from Victoria, Australia, DownUnder

    "Quiet amateur film making, but has some good footage. Unfortunately a lot of the wildlife photography is taken with the camera looking down a spotting scope. Quite poor quality images.
    Has some interest, but certainly won't win an Academy Award. If you can buy it on special, it is worth a look, but I wouldn't pay full price.

    Alaska Hunting Adventure, May 10, 2007
    By MarathonFlyFisher from Buffalo, WY

    "This movie is one of the best ever done on hunting and wilderness travel. Buck takes the viewer along like a best friend. He shows the map he uses to plan his trip, and points out his planned route AND why he went that way. The viewer sees Buck spot, stalk and pass up shots. Traits rare in today's "hurry up and kill something" hunting videos. Buck takes the viewer along to discover old mining cabins, troublesome Grizzlies (and how to avoid confrontation), and a wilderness we all long for. Buck's delight at seeing other non-game wildlife, like a rare Wolverine, permeate this entire hunting thrill ride."
