Editor Note: Subscribers to The Hunting Report are generally a hardy, experienced, savvy lot, often looking beyond the surface to see what's really there on any hunt they've taken. Despite not taking a wolf, Russell (Rusty) Brines' report (number 8783) highly recommends his hunt in Nunavut, Canada with outfitter Ryan St. John of Henik Lake Adventures in May of this year. Read on: I hunted wolves with outfitter Ryan St. John in May 2012. As it turns out, the winter of 2011/12 had the worst snowfalls on record, and the lack of snow impacted every aspect of our hunt.
Before booking this hunt, I shopped other outfitters extensively at the SCI Show, on the internet and via phone calls. St. John's success rate was almost 100 percent over the past eight years, and the fact that I wanted to hunt by snow machines made him my obvious choice. We had been scheduled to take this hunt earlier, but with the lack of snowfall, St. John asked us to postpone, hoping it would snow. Our flight in was delayed by a huge storm that should have been snow but which all fell as rain.....
