The first hunt is with Kelly Vrem who has been hunting the Peninsula for many years and runs a top notch operation. He has one slot still open this year 12-21 Oct.
You'll be hunting the beach on the Bering Sea side of the Peninsula so it will not be a butt buster hunt at all.
The Peninsula is noted for its really big bears and a monster is possible but Kelly would not advise you to turn down a 9 footer unless you can be happy leaving without a bear.
This hunt routinely is priced at 1x1 10 days $21,500. Now $15,900. This is a great deal with a super outfit.
The second hunt is with Rick Grant/Tikchik Air Ventures. I've know Rick for many years and he runs a small but very personal operation in Western AK. He has an exclusive hunt area in the Togiak National Wildlife Refuge where he only takes four bears per year.
You should expect around 9' here and to see 10 to 20 bears a day. I personally hunted this area for 20 years and the bears are incredilbly numereous there.
Rick has an opening 20-30 Sept with 9 actual hunt days.
Price is 1x1 $13,900 discounted from $15,500.
Both hunt prices include the hunt and bush flight. Kelly's hunt strats from King Salmon and Rick's from Dillingham. Both King Salmon and Dillingham can be reached by multiple daily flights from Anchorage and the flights are basically the same cost.
Extras for both hunts:
License $85
Bear tag $500
Trophy shipping
Taxidermy as necessary
Hotels if needed before or after the hunt
Airfare to and from King Samon or Dillingham
Gratuities
