Overall Impression: Excellent

I hunted grizzly in Alaska from 7/5/04 through 7/9/04. The season is open year round due to the number of grizzlies. The bears were moving down to the river to eat the salmon. I took a 7 ft. boar and 2 other hunters took a 7 ft. and 9 ft. bear. The outfitter is a good person and is honest and trustworthy. I did hunt hard and took my bear the last afternoon of the hunt. These bears are not as big as the coastal brown bears as they are in the interior of Alaska (Talkeetna Mts.) The terrain is thick brush, the bugs are terrible this time of year but that is the price you must pay. From what I hear, it is a totally different hunt than the coastal brown bear hunt but as you can see above, they do take the occasional 9 ft. interior grizzly and that is a very large bear. This hunt is also not nearly as expensive as a coastal brown bear hunt. So, if you are looking for an interior grizzly hunt, you should definitely consider giving this outfitter consideration.
