5 day Alaska Sitka Blacktail Deer Hunt

$3,500 - 1x1 (1 hunter / 1 guide)

Hunting Season

August, September, October, November

Hunt Description

The rainforest of Southeast Alaska offer superb hunting for Sitka Blacktail Deer. We have early season hunts which take place above the tree line in high alpine country as well as late season hunts in both the timber and muskegs. Most hunts are fly outs and take place on Prince of Wales Island. August and September alpine hunts offer the chance for good weather with bucks feeding in the lush vegetation offered at this time of the year.

Some bucks may still have velvet on the antlers and sleeker reddish colored summer coats. Late October and November presents our bucks looking their best with heavy winter coats, thick necks, and polished antlers. During this time we will hunt lower elevations and use calls as the deer are in the rut.

All deer hunts offer the opportunity to combine fresh or saltwater fishing, Black bear, and waterfowl if you wish to extend your visit.

Camp & Accommodations

Lodging before and after the hunt is in our Bed & Breakfast. Early season hunts are fly out hunts so lodging is in tents. For hunts during the rut (late October & November) lodging is aboard a 31 foot boat.
