KUDUBULLChukotka Moose in Russia!!!!
We have two openings left for moose in Central Kamchatka.
A. September 25 to October 15
Spot and stalk or horseback hunt, the end of rutting time.
The hunt takes place in Middle Kamchatka / area Milkovo or area Dolinovka. These areas are heavily forested. Hunt there before September 25 is difficult because of green bush and lack of visibility.
How it works. You arrive in Petropavlovsk and then you drive to Milkovo with minibus about 5-6 hours, from Milkovo 2-3 hours on horseback to the base camp (wooden cabins). From base camp you ride again on horseback to the fly camp. Then horseback hunt.
If you hunt in the Dolinovka area, in this case itinerary changes a bit: you arrive in Petropavlovsk and then you drive to Dolinovka with minibus about 6 hours (380km), from Dolinovka to the base camp (wooden cabins) with helicopter (20 minutes). Helicopter transfer is included! Horses are already in the fly camp. You hunt from the fly camp with horses.
Brown Bear can be added to the hunt during the period.
SECOND OPEN DATENovember 25 to December 15
Snow mobiles hunt. They are used for transportation. The hunter and the guide travel great distances by snowmobile looking for a track of a moose bull. Your guide drives a snowmobile and you stay in the sledge behind. Once the fresh tracks are cut, hunters follow a moose on foot, show shoes or skis. In November and December it can be very cold in Kamchatka, but success rate of this hunt is nearly 100%.
How it works. The way to Milkovo or Dolinovka is the same as at first but from Milkovo or Dolinovka you reach the base camp by snow mobile. It takes about 2 hours. In November you hunt from base camp with snow mobile.
This is a 10-day huntPrice for 1x1 is $12,500, Price for 2x1 is $12,000Not Included:
Visas, International flights; Domestic flights; VIP service at the airports if available, Alcohol, Items of a personal nature; Hotel and meals before and after the hunt, Excess luggage payment charged by airlines; Sightseeing program; The cost of any extra hunting days; Non-hunter fee; The cost of additional trophies; Trophy shipment; Tips; CITES;Formalities package (Visa Invitation; firearm export/import permit; international veterinary certificate).

KUDUBULLThe Chukotka Moose is the largest antlered animal in the world. Antler spreads vary considerably. The average moose has a spread of 61 inches / 155 cm, although each year a few of our hunters take moose of 70-72 inches / 178-183 cm in spread.
I will post pics and extras in a few!
Thanks
