| Our client's
success means our success so each hunt is customized, within
reason, to our client’s wishes and abilities rather than
presenting one set agenda. We’ve chosen areas where we
believe clients will have the best possible chance at taking
the species they’re after while participating in the type of
hunt they wish to experience. These choices are based on
years of personal and professional experience. It is
important that you prepare for any hunt in Alaska by being
in good shape, practicing with your rifle and selecting the
proper personal gear.
We hunt GMU 20 with horses for moose, sheep and grizzly.
The terrain is a mixture of spruce forest, open tundra
hillsides and ridges leading up to alpine tundra and shale
covered mountain slopes. Elevations run from about 3000-6000
ft. This area, located on the north side of the Alaska
Range, is restricted to non-motorized hunting during the
Fall season which means fewer hunters putting pressure on
the game. The terrain is good for horseback travel and
having the stock gives us the advantage of extra mobility
with less backpacking. Base camp consists of a large wall
tent for cooking, dining and gathering and 2 person sleeping
tents equipped with cots and a wood stove or propane heater.
A portable shower is provided and there is always plenty of
food. |

The moose population in this
area has been stable or increasing for several years.
Numbers are high enough that the season was extended an
additional five days the past two years. Chances of taking a
moose are very good with antler spreads averaging in the
high fifty inch range. Antler spreads of 60 plus inches are
not uncommon.
Dall sheep population here varies depending on past Winter
snow conditions and lamb survival rate. Rams average 35”.
Sheep hunting is tough, even with horses. The stalk is
always a climb on foot while carrying backpacks but the
horses enable us to get from camp to the climbing point with
less effort, saving your legs for the big push.
Grizzlies in this area average about 6.5’. The population is
healthy but spread out. There are nice sized interior
grizzlies here but this is NOT the area to come for a bear
hunt only. It is recommended as an addition to a moose or
sheep hunt.

We backpack hunt in Game Management Unit 17 for Brown Bear. Caribou
and moose may be optional add-ons. Camps and hunt areas are accessed
by river boat and/or bush plane. Hunts in Game Management Unit 9 for
Brown Bear are also on foot with access to the area by bush plane.
Base camp consists of a wall tent for cooking, dining and gathering and
2 person sleeping tents equipped with cots and woodstove or propane
heat. The terrain is tough and the weather extreme in these areas but
the bears are numerous, averaging 8ft.
