We have numerous color phases of blacks including cinnamon, blonde, chocolate, and black with white. We target big mature boars in the 6 foot plus range.

British Columbia Outfitter #5
Our area is approx. 4,700 sq. miles located between Terrace and Bella Coola taking in the Kitlope Valley. It includes a 782,000 acre area comprising the world's largest protected tract of old growth temperate rain forest. With the Pacific on the west, and the Coastal Mountains on the east, there are no roads in this area, and few animals have seen man. We are the only guide for this territory as granted by the B.C. government.We are a small personalized operation. You deal with the owner.
Black Bear hunting 
If you are looking for a huge black bear then Northern B.C. is the place. 2000 saw our hunters all take 2 bears and leave extremely happy. The terrain is perfect for bears to grow large as there is an abundance of food. This is a quality hunt in a wilderness location, not a truck or baited stand hunt.
We consider this hunt to be the premier Black Bear hunt in North America, catering to only 2 or 3 hunters per trip. Past hunters have taken Black Bear to 8 feet squared, with a high % in the record book, the avg. being just over the 7 foot mark.
Dates: April 20 - May 20; and September 1
Price: $4,650 1x1; $3,650 2x1: includes 1 bear each
second bear $750 trophy fee
Our Area is Literally a Goat Hunter's Paradise!
The coast of B.C. is noted for having the highest population of Goat in North America, and the inaccessibility of our hunting territory ensures no resident pressure. With the use of float-equipped aircraft we are able to easily access high alpine lakes putting hunters and camps virtually in the middle of Goat habitat.
Goats 9" to 10" are the norm rather then the exception, and in past years we have placed many Goats in the record books (#1 Wild Mountain Goat in the SCI record book came from our area). We fly you from Terrace to the main camp which is located on a lake in the center of our hunting territory, from there we fly you to one of 20 high alpine lakes with spike camps.
Goats in our area have extremely heavy bases compared to the interior of B.C. They reach record-book class at a younger age, due to milder winters and abundant feed. For the hunter in poor physical condition, this may be your best opportunity to take a Mountain Goat and for the hunter in good physical condition we can offer an excellent chance of taking a record-class billy.
7 day Mountain Goat $4,450 US 1 x 1; $3,450 US 2 x 1 plus trophy fees
Dates: August 1 - October 15
8 day Mountain Goat $4,950 US 1 x 1; $3,950 US 2 x 1 plus trophy fees
Black Bear and Wolf may be harvested on an opportunity basis for a trophy fee
Trophy Fees: Goat $1,250. Black Bear $750, Wolf no fee
Grizzly Bear hunting
This area of coastal B.C. boasts some of the largest populations of Grizzly proven by the record books. The reason for their large numbers and size is the long growing season, coupled with the abundance of berries, and the high protein diet of raw spawning salmon which they enjoy during the summer and fall. Clearly, coastal bears are larger!
We have taken Grizzly to 10 feet squared, the average being 8.5 feet squared. In 1998 we took a 9.5 foot, 26 2/16 record bear.Our success rate indicates how serious we are about hunting this great bear, insisting that all Grizzly hunters concentrate only on this hunt, not a mixed bag, although you may take a Black Bear while in pursuit of Grizzly.

Date: September 1 - 10, 10 day hunt including Black Bear and wolf
Price $10,000 US and a $5,000 trophy fee
