Additional information
: Spring hunt
The hunting season begins when the bears awaken from hibernation. Hunters travel deep into the wilderness on snowmobiles to search for tracks. The guide drives the snowmobile and the customer enjoys the views and the ride. When large tracks are found, the actual hunt begins. When the bear has been located, the hunter approaches the shooting distance on foot, skis or snowshoes.
Spring Sea Coast Hunt
This hunt is open only for 10 days in April-May (depending on a year) when the tide gets low and the bigger part of the coast os out of water. Bears starts to be awake from hibernation and all come to the coast in a search of dead fish and other sea animals. At the same spot and time we can see 10 bears and more. This is our exclusive expedition hunt and the biggest bears we even got were from there.
Fall hunt
During the fall hunt bears are stalked by boat, on foot, or by keeping an eye on salmon streams and berry swamps. In some areas it is also possible to use horses. The average shooting distance in bear hunts is 100-200 metres.
Accommodation
Hunters stay in tents and cabins. They are heated and tidy, but naturally do not have running water or a WC. Separate tents are set up at the camp for meals, bathing and sleeping. Electricity is provided by a generator. Each group is accompanied by its own interpreter and cook.
Weather
Spring hunt: 0 to +8°C daytime, 0-10°C at night.
