Your spring black bear hunt will start at the trailhead on day 1 where we will meet up, pack your gear, and adjust your stirrups for the 6 mile horseback ride into base camp. Upon arrival we will unload your gear and get you settled into your 14x16 canvas wall tent complete with cot, foam pad, lantern, and wood stove. After getting a bite to eat we will head out for an evening of glassing as this will be the primary way to find a bear. June is when the bears are rutting and the boars will be frequently moving lookings for sows. We may also try some predator calling from time to time. After the evening hunt we will return to camp for a home cooked meal prepared by our cook. We will leave most mornings on horseback and spend the majority of our time glassing open parks and burnt timber. Bears have been spotted while fishing in the creek just below camp, so throw in your rod if you desire and take advantage of the exceptional fishing and maybe you'll see a bear in the process. Each morning you will be fed a hot, homemade breakfast and sent with a sack lunch to be eaten in the field. Day 7 will be a travel day back to the trailhead, so after you have eaten your breakfast we will hit the trail and have you back to your vehicle around noon.
We require a deposit of 50% of the total cost of the contract. We hire help, pay permits
and fees, and prepare for your arrival months in advance. Therefore, deposits
are not refundable unless time allows for your spot to be filled. It is my policy
to have the balance paid in full by Sept. 1st
Exception to our Deposit Policy: If you do not receive a hunting license through
NO FAULT OF YOUR OWN, then we shall refund
your deposit, or apply it towards the following year (client's choice).
