Alaska for sure don't know if your FF miles will work very well as getting there you are limited on airlines that fly up there. I'd go back to SE AK to do either another DIY Spring Black Bear hunt before the salmon runs or go in the fall after the big runs are done and try to put together a DIY bear and black tail hunt.

The other option would be a DIY caribou hunt in AK as well. The cost will go up to get out on the Tundra but it should be more affordable when compared to a Moose hunt. Sheep, mountain goat, grizzly, and brown would be out for me as I can't afford a guided hunt up there, yet.
