Experience an Unforgettable Arizona Bear Hunt on the White Mountain Apache Reservation

Embark on a premier Arizona bear hunt in the legendary White Mountain Apache Reservation, a vast and pristine wilderness renowned for its exceptional big game opportunities. This is your chance to pursue magnificent black bears, including the potential for impressive color-phase trophies, in one of Arizona’s most exclusive and game-rich hunting destinations, often referred to as the Fort Apache Indian Reservation.

Your Arizona Bear Hunting Adventure

Our guided Arizona bear hunts on the White Mountain Apache Reservation are tailored to provide a top-tier hunting experience. We focus on ethical hunting practices and sustainable wildlife management. Whether you prefer spot and stalk methods, or other permitted techniques for your Fort Apache bear hunt, our guides will work tirelessly to put you in the best position for success.

The White Mountain Apache Nation is home to some of the premier black bear hunting in the world. Known for having large color phase bears, the Tribal biologist estimates that 50% of all the bears on the Reservation are color phase. For this specific hunting unit, we believe this number to be even higher!

You truly have free reign to choose the type of Arizona black bear hunting experience you’re looking for.

  • The outfitter has highly trained hounds that excel year round on both mountain lion and black bear.
  • You can hunt over bait sites, with either a rifle or a bow.
  • You can spot-and-stalk, or sit water in the hot summer months.

For the spring/summer hunting season, each outfitter is assigned their own area. This outfitter operates in Area 1. Arizona has strived to manage the bear population in this unit to produce old mature boars. It is the goal to have a sow harvest percentage of less than 10% annually. They have met that goal yearly, without fail.

This isn’t just a hunt; it’s an immersion into the wild beauty and rich heritage of the White Mountains. Prepare for breathtaking scenery, abundant wildlife, and the thrill of pursuing one of North America’s most iconic big game animals.
