Welcome Jeffery61. It’s a dream of mine to visit Alaska for that same reason.
It’s a welcomed lifestyle for me.
It brings me peace of mind to have this insurance. Helped a couple of relatives to sign up. I sleep better knowing they have more legal protection.
Because I care about em, I encourage them to focus on safer use, and to be a calm, cool, carrier. Having good judgement is a learned skill, and we should all be forever students of that.
Wish you well.

Thanks good to know! Im thinking to give the basic membership a test run im always willing to learn. Do they offer any hunting classes or mostly for self defence?
Im have been fishing for a while but hunting im still learning its a great place to get started.

I’ve only seen self defense classes herein, as opposed to hunting. A few “posted” topics were on hunting, which I’m new to.
If you haven’t seen this film yet, I especially liked the story at the very end:

Ohh no… FWW im sorry, kidding! Its very different but at least you have the North Pole.
Although I feel fourtante to be at JBER. The Air Force side seams to be a little more comfortable.

See, I never would have thought that Richardson and Elmendorf would have become Joint. But I guess in order to keep it from possible closure, they had to do something. lol. Joking aside. Actually my time at Wainwright was quite enjoyable. So much so that I completed two tours: 18 mo. and then 30 months. Afterward, I went to Ft. Sam Houston and got a job, and that job led me to Fort Benning enroute to Bragg, NC where I finished out my career.

@Jeffery61. The USCCA membership is, in my opinion, a very good deal.

@Jeffery61 Welcome to our community, we are glad to have you. 
Do you have a rifle for hunting? My overall choice for your area would be a 30.06.
For your first couple of hunts I would recommend a guide and pick his brain.
Some info on your area.

We would love for you to get any questions answered about USCCA memberships. Have you had a chance to call and speak with anyone, since you posted here?

Don’t know how you would take an employee recommended call. But as a long time member, I can tell you that the USCCA is absolutely the gold standard for new customer and member support
I actually pay for 3 Elite memberships, never needed it. But I had 2 incidents that came close.
