TRIP TAKEN: Vessel Based Mountain Goat Hunt in Alaska
Consultant: Russ Meyer, Outdoors International
September, 2018
I did a vessel-based mountain goat hunt out of Valdez, Alaska. They did a very nice job with organization and have an excellent staff that is very knowledgeable and work very hard for you.
To be able to handle this archery mountain goat hunt, gun or bow, a person needs to be in excellent physical condition, and have the right gear. This is SUPER important because once a good goat is spotted, you will be starting out at sea level.
The Chugach Mountain Range in Alaska, which I have hunted twice, is steeper and more rugged than anything I have experienced in Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, or Colorado. Goat hunts may be the most difficult you can do but also may be the most rewarding.

Our job it is to help you in researching, booking and planning a great hunting trip with one of our amazing outfitter partners around the world. The outfitter is a fantastic man and incredibly hard working and knowledgeable, there is no doubt he will do everything within his power to make peoples hunts successful and enjoyable. I plan to do it again with him next year for sure. 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. 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.Discover why thousands of people have trusted Outdoors International to help plan their hunt.
