About this hunt

We invite you to gather up your hip boots and a good rifle and come hunt some of the finest black bear country in the world! These bears are fresh out from hibernation. They grow large due to the maritime environment that offers ample salmon, rock crabs, sedges, berries, and sea life. The long days and mild temperatures of Spring makes for easy days afield. Our big boat is base camp and we use 16' skiffs to spot from. It is common to see big boars chasing sows as they come into rut. The grouse are booming in the mountains, steel head are headed up the streams from salt water, the songbirds are back from their trip South. These days afield are the nectar of a new year beginning. A big boar black bear will give you a gorgeous trophy; and if you are game to try, the meat makes wonderful stew meat, swiss steak, and Summer sausage. This is a great trip for both the trophy hunter looking for a book animal and the young hunter desiring a first animal. Bears average 7', we get occasional 7 1/2', the largest are 8'.

Got a Nice Bear

10.0 of 10

The trip was unique, took me some effort to get the bear. We saw many bears every day and just waiting for the right one. Food on the boat was a lot better than I thought. Guides are very kind and helpful.

No signal the whole time! And I don’t like the rain.

Sitka Deer Alpine Hunt

9.3 of 10

True trophy hunt with highly knowledgeable and capable outfitter/guide and packer. Full "whatever it takes" effort on their part. Likeable and "easy-to-be-with" personalities. Respected my hunting skills and worked hard to accommodate my personal limitations. Targets mature good-to-great trophies. Very remote.

Had hoped we could have secured air transportation to spike camp; without that, it was a very challenging ascent (and descent), really beyond my capability relative to age/fitness. Need to be in "sheep shape" for this hunt, my bad. If you can handle the physical exertion, it's a great hunt opportunity to get a world-class trophy.

Reliable High quality
