Bear Hunt
My daughter and I just returned from our hunt with Kettle River Guides and Outfitters. They provided a hunt for my daughter and I that she will remember for the rest of her life. She got her bear the last day, just before we were going to go home, but that morning before breakfast she told me it was one of the greatest trips we had ever gone on. (So it wasn’t all about coming home with a bear) We saw many bears and had multiple opportunities that just did not come together for a 10 year old on a first hunt. The guides never gave up and with a group effort helped Ashley harvest her first bear just hours before we left for home. I should also add, they treated my daughter like a princess the entire week and provided a comfortable and respectable atmosphere that was just the thing for a young hunter.

British Columbia Hunting Information
British Columbia is an excellent hunting destination that offers a wide variety of game species. Vast wilderness areas and pristine coastlines provide world class adventure hunting for those seeking that trip of a lifetime. BC is arguably best known for big coastal black bears, Canada moose, grizzly bear, mountain lion, Dall sheep and Stone sheep. Hunters can book a hunt with an outfitter and avoid the license drawing process common in most U.S. states.
Oregon Hunting Information
Oregon is not known to be a trophy big game producing state. That said they do have good quantities of animals such as Elk.
Yukon Territory Hunting Information
The Yukon Territory is a legendary hunting destination. Hunters from all over the world travel to the Yukon for wilderness adventure hunting at its finest. This rugged, remote and beautiful province is nearly untouched by man. It is similar in size to the state of California but with a population of only about 30,000 residents. The Yukon is a vast, pristine wilderness that holds a tremendous variety of trophy game species. You should be in excellent physical condition to maximize your success and to enjoy the Yukon experience.
