A black bear hunt allows a leisurely morning continental breakfast. We sit down to a fabulous lunch and prepare you for the afternoon hunt. You will hunt from mid-afternoon until 1/2 hr past sunset.

Travel to the stands is by truck then a short walk or Atv for the further baits. The baits are situated strategically for best bear attraction, not for ease of getting there, but rest assured we take care in safe travel. You will have a radio to use for checking in with the guide at predetermined times, or when you shoot your bruin. We will give you a more detailed orientation upon arrival as to what to do, listen for, etc., when you shoot your bear.

Spring hunts are usually warm but come prepared for cold weather and wet weather. Also, it may be a good idea to bring some mosquito net clothing and repellent. The thermacells are very popular and actually work well, most hunters swear by them. Fall hunts can be cool and wet also but fewer bugs. BUT, we don't have black flies or no-seeums!
