About this hunt

We hunt Black Bears in the spring using strictly spot-and-stalk methods—there is absolutely no baiting. Our area supports a healthy and abundant Black Bear population, with roughly 30% color-phase bears. These bears range in color from jet black and dark brown to cinnamon and even blonde. Hunters are permitted to harvest two bears per year, creating an excellent opportunity to pursue both a large, mature boar averaging 6–7 1/2 feet and a highly sought-after color-phase bear. This is a true fair-chase experience in wild country, tailored for hunters who value challenge, authenticity, and quality animals.
