ABOUT THE OUTFITTER
Welcome to Becharof Lodge, one of Alaska’s most remote, breathtaking destinations. We’re not a plush lodge, rather a comfortable camp in remote Alaska. Our friendly, hard-working, experienced staff will ensure your comfort and safety, and make sure you have a good time.
The only way to reach our camp is by bush plane. Once here, prepare yourself for one of the most tranquil, captivating experiences of your life!
ABOUT THE HUNTS
Our camp is situated in the heart of some of the best brown bear hunting in the world. Due to our location on the coast of southwest Alaska, and the fact the mountain range in which these giant brown bears den for the winter is only 75 miles away, many bears congregate here. The land we hunt is rich in sea life, allowing these Alaskan brown bears to gorge themselves six months out of the year and grow to immense size.
The moose in our hunting area also grow big, thanks to healthy genetics and plenty of food. Wolves pass through once in a while, but do not gather here to focus feeding on moose, year-round. As a result, our moose numbers continue to grow, and the size of our bull moose keep getting bigger and bigger.
We have a very good relationship with the local people in and around the village of Egegik. Our exclusive outfitter access to this area ensures a very good opportunity for hunters to fill tags.
The hunting is done from tented spike camps, where ground is covered on ATVs and by boat. Spotting game, then stalking in for a shot, is the norm. Moose are often called in during the rut.
Bring hip or chest waders that you can walk in all day, every day, as that’s the most efficient way to comfortably cover ground. Mud and water dominate the lowland tidal flats and tundra that we hunt.
Being able to shoot out to 300 yards or more will help increase the chances of filling a tag, as the terrain, though gentle, can be challenging to negotiate due to all the water.
Wolves, wolverine, red fox, ptarmigan, ducks and geese are often taken as bonus species by many of our hunters.
