Hi Russ,
While questions similar to yours have been asked and answered many times on
this forum, each case is unique. And as usual the more information you can
provide, the easier it will be for others to help you come up with the ideal
solution.
You have stated your budget as $1000. M10 ~$250; headphones ~$100; cables
~$50; second-hand tripod ~$50; DIY array and windscreen system ~$50. If you
will require phantom power then an additional ~$100 for a portable phantom
power supply and an adapter cable.
That leaves $250 each for self powered or plug-in-power microphones, or $200
each for phantom powered microphones, or $500 for a single-point stereo mic.
Sennheiser makes a lot of different microphones. Are there specific models you
have in mind? Are you open to different brands?
Can you solder to build your own cables, and DIY the windscreen and array
systems?
It sounds like a special place you visit in Alaska. Can you further describe
the sounds from this setting? What elements compose the perspective of hearing
"well over a mile downstream"? How do you imagine these elements will
translate to your stereo playback system?
