We offer a
Hunting/Fishing Combo packages at the lodge for the
outdoorsmen that wants to experience it all! The fall
hunting season opens Sept 10th and we only offer one week
slot for black bear hunts, Sept 10th - Sept 16th. We have
200+ acres of prime hunting ground that the lodge sits on
and guests are welcome to hunt directly from the lodge, or
from the 18' skiff that will be provided. There are many
trails to hike on the property and amazing views to enjoy
while hunting. You can also familiarize yourself with the
surrounding country side by using your boat to scout new
area's.
Once you've killed your black bear, you'll still have
full use of your 18' skiff. You can then fish for salmon,
halibut and other bottom dwellers for the rest of your week.
You can also mix and match any day you choose for hunting or
fishing. Its entirely up to you! Remember to read and
understand the local hunting laws/regulations before making
your trip to Alaska.
Alaska Hunting Regulations.
We only offer 6 bear hunts each year, with 6 non-hunter
spots (observers), making a 12 total spots at the lodge
during this week. This gives groups the option to bring
wives, brothers, sons/daughters, along for the "hunt".
Here's a usual itinerary for Black bear hunts below.
Trip Itinerary
Sept 10th -Travel to Valdez and arrive on the
5:30pm flight. We will pick you and your luggage up via our
15-passenger courtesy van, stop for any last minute items in
town and head out to the lodge using our Stormcat catamaran
boat, arriving later that evening at the lodge. Get settled
into your rooms, have dinner, get familiarized with the area
before heading back to your room in preparation for the
start of your hunt the next day.
Sept 11th -Spend the day cruising the coast line
using one of the 18' boats in search of a black bear. Sack
lunches are provided before you start your hunt each day at
breakfast.
Sept 12th -Hunting, spotting and sightseeing!
Sept 13th -Spend your morning in the boat and then
hike the lodge property in search of a black bear. The lodge
was built on a old mining settlement and there are still
logging roads that are accessible. You'll also find old
mining equipment from the Copper/Gold mine that was in
operation in the early 1900's, to explore while hunting on
the property.
Sept 14th -If both hunters have taken a bear by
this time, start your day out planning your fishing
adventure that morning. The Silver Salmon are still running
strong during this time of year and produce spectacular
battles at the end of a wet line! Bottom fishing is still in
full swing during this time as well.
Sept 15th -Fishing and sightseeing, maybe even
catch a pod of Killer whales making their regular tour
around Prince William Sound!
Sept 16th -Leave the lodge in the morning at 9:00am
and arrive back in Valdez for the 12:00pm flight back home.
