Yakutat, Alaska – Coastal Brown Bear Hunt

Alaskan brown bear hunts with this outfitter are directly connected to the unmatched wilderness and wildlife of the Yakutat Alaska Brown Bear hunt area. In fact, Yakutat is widely regarded as one of the premier destinations in Alaska for brown bear hunting. With its dramatic landscapes and rich natural resources, this region offers far more than just a hunt—it delivers a true Alaskan adventure.

The Legendary Yakutat Hunting Area

To begin with, the Yakutat region boasts miles of pristine sandy beaches and is home to the largest glaciers in North America. Towering above it all is Mount St. Elias, creating a breathtaking backdrop that few hunting destinations can rival. As a result, hunters experience both exceptional scenery and world-class brown bear habitat.

Prime Salmon Habitat & Strong Brown Bear Population

Equally important, the Yakutat Forelands contain some of the finest salmon spawning grounds in Alaska. These rich food sources directly support a dense and healthy brown bear population. This abundance is clearly reflected in Alaska’s exceptionally long brown bear hunting season in the area, which runs from September 1st through May 31st.

10-Day Spring & Fall Brown Bear Hunts

This outfitter offers 10-day brown bear hunts during both the Spring and Fall seasons. Each season provides a distinctly different hunting experience, allowing hunters to choose the style that best fits their preferences and goals.

Spring Brown Bear Hunts

Spring hunts are tent-based and are conducted primarily using spot-and-stalk techniques. These hunts focus on glassing large areas and strategically closing the distance on mature bears. Additionally, Spring hunts can be combined with black bear hunting for an additional trophy fee, adding even more value and opportunity to the experience.

Fall Brown Bear Hunts

In contrast, Fall brown bear hunts are either lodge-based or tent-based and are far more up close and personal. During the fall season, hunters pursue bears in alder-choked creeks filled with spawning salmon. Consequently, encounters are intense, exciting, and highly memorable.

Exceptional Success Rates & Trophy Quality

Thanks to outstanding habitat and expert guiding, this outfitter maintains an impressive 80% success rate on brown bear hunts. Moreover, trophy quality is exceptional. The average brown bear measures approximately 8.5 feet, with several bears harvested that have neared the 10-foot mark. Therefore, hunters pursuing truly giant Alaskan brown bears will find this hunt especially appealing.
