Notes on Hunts

• Please note that Mountain Goat hunting, even if flown into an area, is a very physically demanding and challenging hunt. Clients looking to pursue this hunt should speak with us well in advance of your desired hunt date to ensure proper preparation.

• Both Blacktail Deer and Mountain Goat hunting will involve hiking many miles each day whether based on the M/V Denali or a spike camp.

• Bear hunts are coastal hunts, based on our vessel, the M/V Denali. We will use skiffs to spot and access the coastline area and near coastal fringe.

Note on weather

Weather can, and does, impact hunting. While we can’t promise you weather won’t be a factor (afterall, this is Alaska), we can promise we will do our very best to utilize each and every hunt day.
