I’m hearing it was a mild winter. Green up coming sooner.. some bears already seen roaming.. what are y’all’s observations or thoughts so far this year? We usually hit 2nd week of May.. but may look at end of April. We usually hunt 4500-6500ft.
Hands down the best experience I’ve had in Alaska! Glassed 2 bears on day 1 shot this one the first 4 hours of my hunt! Not the largest bear but I was on a time crunch and they went above and beyond to make it happen!!
Family member just got back.late spring and Bad weather , the guide outfit they went through had 5 brown bear hunters none successful. Said bears were still higher than the Mtn goats .. tough stuff ..
Headed to the Brooks Range. Flying out of cold foot. Hunting the last 7-10 days of May. Anyone been in that neck of the woods that time of year? I’ve been in the fall caribou hunting, but never for Grizz. Excited is an understatement… ready for a challenge. Flying looks like this —...
Say for instance your “honey hole” isn’t producing a bear sighting. How long do you stick around and hunt that area? 1 day 2 days? How many of you move constantly to new ground and how many stick to 1 or 2 areas you know has had bear in the past ? I know they are so many factors … but what do...
Headed back up NW of Missoula… anyone else hunting this area this year ? May 6-12 we will camping and hunting … and decent fishing this time or is the run off still too strong ? Any eyes in the field on the green up…? I’ve heard about the late snow
Just booked with Tyrrell’s Trails, llc. Last week of May 2022. Will be in the brooks range ( central eastern ) I believe. Super pumped about this opportunity. Any advice on hunting these guys? Any specific things you would take other than good optics & boots?
What would one pay or be a reasonable price for a interior grizzly hunt guided 1x1. Hunting out of a Spike Camp? Including a flight from anchorage to the base camp. I’m getting the
18k-22k range.... so far. Fully outfitted and guided of course for a non resident...
Here are a few photos from our annual spring bear hunting! Seems we were a tad early on the green up.. only saw 1 bear in 5 days of hunting. Usually see a lot more. I missed this one at 700 yards.. shot over his back by a few inches... I’ve practiced long range out to 900 many times but I rushed...
Anyone know where I can backorder this specific ammo? Or order? I’m not expecting to be able to find any in stock anywhere. But looking for someway to atleast get some on backorder. This specific round is what my gun / scope / custom turret is setup with and what it shoots the best with so hate...
The annual spring bear hunt for me and my dad and uncle is coming up. We are debating between the 2nd week of April or 2nd week of May. We are choosing these weeks based off of history of good daytime bear activity aligning with the “New Moon” phase. I’m afraid access will be an issue Second...
Just finished this hunt with a guide from Chappell guide service. ( was top notch ) 5 star reviews and highly recommend Chappell guide service.

We hunted for 5 days. To say the unit is overcrowded is an understatement. We hunted hard, glassing for 8-9 hours a day. And hiking many miles. Along...
Headed out in October for some mule deer hunting. Hoping to find a spot to snag a few trout while out there. Anyone have any familiarity in this area ?
Has anyone had experience in these units finding a guide or outfitters that are worth while?
Will be doing 2nd rifle mule deer. I’m on the fence about DIY or getting some assistance in the area. I’ll have limited time of course like most of you guys and want to make the most of my opportunity.
Alright guys,
I’ve drawn a unit 32 mule deer tag. I’m on the fence between hiring an outfitter or DIY. I’ve been researching some public ground and looking at some maps. Doesn’t seem like a very large area. What has been your experience in this unit? First time hunting Colorado. I have hunted...
What’s up guys,
So typically our trip to Montana is in May each year. Except this year due to coronavirus. Anyway, we are here now hunting a few spots we have had previous luck at. We have not seen a single bear! In 3 days of hunting, typically we have been fortunate enough to see plenty in our...
