We Did a Fly-In Moose Hunt in Newfoundland | Eastbound Overland - E.9 - Off-Grid Cabin & Floatplane
Finally the heavy wind stopped and we boarded our floatplane early in the morning for our flight into a remote off-grid cabin in Newfoundland's Northern Peninsula. The cabin is owned by a hunting outfitter, Portland Creek Outfitters. The flight was beautiful and the kids enjoyed the views. We unloaded the bush plane and hauled our gear up to the off-grid cabin. Noon, I was out hunting. After putting a good amount of effort in, calling and trekking to different spots, even crossing a river, we were unsuccessful. Jamie pointing to a mountain top across the lake and said he wanted to head up there to try the next morning. I was game and after the trek, we set up in a spot with great vantage points and started calling. After some time we managed to call in a bull and ultimately we were successful. Hauling it down from the mountain top through dense bush and across deep bogs was a real challenge but we got back to the boat, leaving another load for the following day. While I hunted, my with Tori went on a hike with the kids, copped some wood and just hung out at camp. Delicious food was on the plate too and we enjoyed fried cod, cod aux gratin and bacon and eggs for breakfast. We were the last people in the camp that season.
