What is a spike camp and what does it consist of ?
A. A spike camp is a even more remote spot to hunt from than base camp. Usually, only a super cub can land there. Spike camp consists of 1 or 2 bomb shelter tents. A bomb shelter tent is a $1000 tent which will take a 90 mph wind and the rain fly goes all the way to the ground on all four sides. These tents are made for Alaska s weather and are probably the toughest tents ever made. On a 1×1 hunt, there is plenty of room for you, your guide and all your gear. On a 2×1 hunt, there will be 2 tents. These tents are 8 ft x 8 ft, you can stand in them in the middle and are very comfortable for two people and gear. 3 people can sleep in the comfortably.
