Grizzly bears are abundant in the Talkeetna Mountains of interior Alaska. Glassing valleys rich with blueberries andJoe Gilbert and July grizzly migratory routes is a sure fire way to encounter these nomadic bears. We hunt game unit 13, the only unit in Alaska that is open to grizzly bear hunting year-round. However the best times for hunting are June, August and September when the bears' hides are still at their prime. We do offer a late July hunt for those wishing to hunt bears on or near and active salmon stream. Our late July, early August hunt for 2005 lasted six hours, resulting in a 7’9” boar being taken by lunchtime. 13 grizzlies were sighted during the six hour hunt.

Bert Cahhill's July GrizzlyColors vary greatly from blonde to dark chocolate to silver and range in size from 7’ to 9’+. Rifles in the .30 caliber range are best and the .338’s are also very well suited for grizzly bear hunting. Be prepared for hunting condition shots at less than 200 yards. We have hunts available during May, June, July, August and September. Black bear can be incidentally taken free of charge on any grizzly hunt and wolves are free of charge for hunts that take place after August 10.

"Jake and I planned a grizzly bear hunt on short notice. His knowledge of his grizzly hunting areas is very good and we were covered up in bears on Day 1 and I took my bear the same day. I would highly recommend Jake to anyone considering a bear hunt." Joe Gilbert
