Holy smoke record moose !

outfitter. The last time it was $3500 plus the tags, licenses etc. I would venture a guess at $4300 to $4500 plus the paperwork. That is just a guess. The camp holds 6 and it was September when we were there. Lots of bears seen. The tag allowed you to get one bear, either a Grizzly or a Black. If you shot a Black, that was your bear, no Grizzly. We were seeing 10 to 15 bears a day. Most of our time was wading the streams where the bears were feeding on the spawning salmon. When we weren't wading we were sitting in ground blinds. I sat in a ground blind where 2 streams came into one bigger one. I had probably 5 or 6 bears come up within 15 feet of me and woof at me, and bounce on their front legs. I couldn't see anything but their head and shoulders, not enough to take a shot. I tried making a rabbit squeak to get them in closer but they just woofed at me and eventually walked away. I sat there for 3 days before I finally got a shot. It ended up being a point blank shot with my 510 GNR. Two shots at about 2 feet. I was wearing black jeans and a black rain jacket and George said the bear thought I was a small black bear and decided to eat me.

Anyway, I want to go back. Not sure when. Still getting over the price of the Cape Buffalo, not that I regret it. I would gladly do it again but it was about double what I had planned on spending.

Anyway, I will talk to George and see if he is still guiding. His wife had some bad health problems and he may not be guiding anymore. I will pass along what info I get.
