Update from our 2007 spring black bear hunts:
"Well, Pat, Ron, and Kevin returned to bear camp again this spring and were joined by first timer Jeff Davis out of New York. This was our best spring black bear hunt to date, with both the bears and the weather cooperating. Four hunters shot six bears for a ratio of 150%. Ron shot his first ever brown color phase bear on Monday and his best ever bear on Thursday, a huge bear that scores 20" P&Y and weighed about 400 lbs. Pat had a great first day shooting 2 excellent bears off "The Hole" bait. Tagging out the first day left him with lots of opportunity to video tape the other guys hunts and relax the rest of the week. Both Kevin and Jeff saved their bears until the end of the hunt, Kevin shooting a nice bear on Friday and Jeff shooting an equally nice bear on Saturday. Both used Kevin's muzzleloader at the "BP" stand. We were also joined by my son Cameron for his first try at guiding, great help and we look forward to his return to camp."

Spring Black Bear Bowhunts in North Central Alberta:
Located 2 hours northwest of Edmonton Alberta along the Athabasca River in the boreal forest zone. This area has produced numerous bears larger than the Alberta average. The colour phases of the black bears run from light blonde to cinnamon to dark chocolate brown and black.

Bear hunts are done over baits, although spot and stalk hunts are an option. Hunters are allowed to take two (2) bears per year in this area. Bowhunting over bait is a very successful way of taking trophy black bears for the archery hunter. Bowhunts will be conducted from tree stands, unless the hunter prefers to utilize a ground blind. Tree stands are portable and are placed 15 to 20 yards from the bait. Hunters will be taken to the stand in mid to late afternoon and picked up at dark. Hunters do have the option to hunt all day if they wish. We utilize a winning combination of oats and molasses, cookies, meat scraps, and beaver for our baiting program.

All terrain vehicles are used to access our camp and the hunting area around it. Camp consists of canvas outfitter wall tents, which are spacious and comfortable. Each tent has a wood burning stove, cots, and lights. Camp is limited to a maximum of 4 hunters per week and provides the hunter with a comfortable, enjoyable wilderness experience.

We have 2 spots left for 2008 and are now taking bookings for 2009
Don't be dissapointed as our hunts book early in the year and we only have a limited number.
