Hunter should be prepared for heavy hiking, but also a lot of time glassing finding the biggest boars. This hunt is for one hunter and one observer. We spend hours scouting by air for denning locations so we know where to look when the large boars start to dig out. Many of our bears are taken off of winter killed or bear killed moose or at the den as the big boars emerge looking for food and sows. This is a very physical winter hunt. Perfect for the physically fit hunter wanting to test their mettle on a great hunt. Winter clothing and sleeping bag are required. You will be hunting from tent camps, typically heated, on snowshoes, with the Bush planes(Cub) on skis. We keep a dedicated pilot working while the hunters are in the field. All guides have satellite communication back to our base. Success rate is very high, long term averages are over 8’6”, with many bears in the 9’ plus range. Bears taken on kills are typically in timber or thick brush and shots are close, many 50-100 yards. A .338 Win Mag with 250 Barnes TSX orTTSX or a 375 H&H with Barnes TSX are the best calibers for big bears up close. No rifles under 300 shooting at least 180 grain Barnes TTSX or bonded core bullet.
