HUNT: Alaska, Vessel-based, Coastal Black Bear Hunt
CONSULTANT: Outdoors International
June, 2012
My Alaska outfitter did a great job of making the most of our entire trip. The number of bears that we saw was very comforting in that there was never any worry about our possibilities of success. The amount of other wildlife that we observed also satisfied my hopes and expectations I had prior to going. Hunting black bears on the coast in Alaska on a vessel based hunt is a hunt I would recommend to anyone. It makes me want to save up for a brown bear hunt.
Thanks again to Outdoors International for booking me on a bear hunt with this outfitter!

Our hunt was excellent.
We saw bucks every day along with all other sorts of wildlife. Mountain goats, bears, and foxes were common sights. Fishing and crabbing was special bonus. The food was excellent, the crew was amazing. Outdoors International did a great job of finding exactly what we were looking for.

What an amazing experience!
The hunting lodge was out of this world!, Rooms, food and the scenery were all A+. Our guide was exceptional and had us on Shiras moose all five days. We saw over 30 total with at least 10 bulls. They had a plan for everything including taxidermy and game processing.
