Cold Zeroapparently, rich did not like what he read here and other places about this outfitter, as he is now booked in b.c. with fontana.
keeline loses another one. taking the easy way out and shortchanging people is bad for business in the long run.
i am glad i saved at least one hunter from getting the shaft. thats the great part about forums like this and others. knowledge is power.

RobRich, as an Illinois transplant in AK, I would be more than willing to give you some suggestions if you drop me a PM about what you are looking for - a black/glacier bear hunt? I personally know another guide in the Yakutat area if that is what you are looking for.
If I could just talk you into trading a mountain nyala hunt for a bear hunt, heh, heh.

RobThe guy I know is Barry Aasmundstad (you can always tell a Norwegian but not much). The company name is something like Mountains & Deserts or the like. He lives here in Anchorage, used to play rugby, and we have a mutual friend. The few times I have met him he seemed like a pretty good guy to me. I know that he is permitted through the feds for one of the principle areas for glacier bears (think the same area Young took Warren Page on his glacier bear hunts). When I talked to him about glacier bears, he said the odds were not very good. Don't quote me on this since it hase been a few years but I think he said they average less than one a year for 6 hunters. I had the impression that a glacier bear hunt was more like a black bear hunt (where you might lucky). If you are interested, I have to talk to our mutual friend on a business matter next week and can find out how to get hold of him.
