Hunting Tips For Grizzly Hunts In Alaska

By Megan Landry


Grizzly hunts in Alaska are right at the top of the list of popular trophy hunting adventures in North America. Considering that a full 98 percent of all U. S. Brown bears are to be found in Alaska, it is obviously the best state for a bear hunt. Grizzlies are the ones in the northern part of the state and those that are found inland.

Before getting into locations and guided hunting trip providers, it may be helpful to take a look at state regulations. In addition to the usual hunting license, everyone is also required to get locking tags priced at $25 each. Each tag is assigned to a specific person, and cannot be transferred to someone else. It must be locked to the bear's hide immediately after the kill.

Tags have to stay on the hides until they are processed or exported. Motorized vehicles can serve as transportation while locating bears, but must not be used for chasing a fleeing bear or herding them towards other hunters. All brown bears and grizzlies are subject to sealing requirements, which means reporting the kill with supporting evidence to a sealing officer within 30 days.

Non-residents aren't allowed to go on an unguided hunt anyway, so it's not necessary to explore these regulations in greater detail. Just get in touch with a company that organizes guided expeditions for grizzly hunts in Alaska. This provider will then take care of everything from the paperwork to accommodations, meals, transportation, and the little matter of locating grizzlies in the vast expanses of tundra and rugged mountains.

Some of these companies put up guests in a luxury hunting lodge. Hunters can use the lodge as a base for multiple expeditions to bag brown bears and grizzlies, black bears, moose, caribou and wolf. The freshwater fishing is just as good, and any spare time can be spent angling at any of the thousands of spots on ponds, streams, lakes and rivers.

It's a given that the guide will be a local expert who will make sure hunters comply with the law while enjoying the thrill of bringing down powerful grizzlies. It doesn't mean visitors don't need to know what's in their own best interest. In fact, finding out a bit more about hunting units, regulatory years, hunting seasons, bag limits, etc. May help in choosing the right provider in the best possible location.

Kodiak, for example, is a part of Unit 8 where hunters have a bag limit of one bear in four regulatory years. It's also illegal to shoot cubs and the female with the cubs. Denali State Park, on the other hand, includes Unit 13-E which has a bag limit of one bear per regulatory year. Other hunting spots, such as Unit 17 near Anchorage, allow two bears/regulatory year.

The units with higher bag limits obviously have bigger bear populations. For the hunter, it means more time spent enjoying the thrill of the hunt and less time moving around on boats, snowmobiles and planes looking for a bear. This is the kind of planning and advance preparation that can make grizzly hunts in Alaska a rousing success.
