We are fortunate to have a substantial grizzly population in the Kootenay, and all indications show that the numbers continue to rise. These are interior grizzlies, which account for the beautiful silvertip hides and variations in color. These bears can square over nine feet, and are generally in excellent shape during the month of May.

All color phases of black bears inhabit these mountain ranges as well. Black, brown and blonde bears are quite common and a number of white and burgundy bears have also been seen by our hunters.

Our bear hunts are based out of the main ranch with spike camps used when hunting the higher elevations. Bears can often be found feeding on avalanche chutes, where a spot and stalk strategy is an effective method of hunting.
