Just an FYI to our bear hunters: Our Kodiak Island Brown Bear hunts are booked into 2019. My next Bear openings are two remaining hunts in 2019. The only hunt I still have open for this year is a 10 day Mt Goat hunt on Kodiak with incidental Sitka Blacktail Deer. Cost is $9550.00 and there is an air taxi charge of $1100.00 for the airfare. The Goat hunt is a backpack trip with packer into a valley that I don't think anyone has ever hunted for Goat. We hunt the valley in the Spring for bear and normally see around 80 Goats on a given hunt. My 10 day goat hunt with a packer which allows for bad weather days and discrimination in taking 9” and better billies. That said, there are worthy nannies out there too, since the longest horns ever recorded were from a nanny and there are several in the all time Boone & Crockett Record's book. Another time consumer on goat hunts is you often have to wait for a goat to move so it doesn't self destruct falling down a mountain. The Kodiak goat population is still growing and his area is now a Registration zone so getting a permit is as easy as picking one up at the local Fish & Game office. Hunters usually buy an incidental deer tag, just in case they see a big buck. The best Goat country doesn't have a lot of deer in it, but the Dog Salmon area lends itself a little better to picking up a deer on a goat hunt. If you don't get a deer tag, sure as it will rain, you'll see a giant buck.
