Description

The Arctic grizzly is one of the great trophies of the world. These bears are hunted on 10 day hunts from late April to the end May when they are just coming out of their dens. Arctic grizzly bears are beautiful bears and often have hair that is over 4” long with no rubs. They hunt these bears on the main land in the far west areas of the Northwest Territories. Hunters and their Inuit guides will travel by snowmobile in search of male bears. The average barren ground grizzly we harvest is 7’-0” to 8’-6”. Camps are heated wood cabins with two Inuit guides for each hunter. Our success rate for grizzly bear is very high and can be planned as a combo hunt with wolf. The days this time of year are long and many miles of unspoiled land will be traveled looking for bears.
