Shadow Creek Outfitters - 2010
Shadow Creek Outfitters bear hunts are in WMU 540 which has one of the highest black bear populations found anywhere in the province of Alberta.
Bordering Wood Buffalo National Park, this is a very remote area with virtually no resident hunting pressure, much of it has never been hunted and continually supplies black bears of impressive sizes. (Green Scored over 23" & up to 600lbs)

Hunting Area Weather
Our Spring Bear Hunt offers up to a 2 bear per hunter harvest with a very high success rate and and excellent percentage of colour phase black bears ranging from blondes to dark browns.
We have over 40 bait sites that are stocked with oats, honey, cookies, meat scraps and beaver. We travel to carefully scouted sites via ATV and boats.

The base camp is generally a bush tent camp with bunk beds and wood stoves providing a clean dry setting for yourself and your gear. Bedding can be provided however most hunters like to bring their own sleeping bag (please clarify your needs with us before coming).

2011 Schedule - Spring Bear Hunt
The Hunt
Our camp is located about 1.5 hours drive from High Level Alberta. Once in High Level Shadow Creek Outfitters provides transportation to camp.
The scenery is gorgeous at this time of year with the country going from brown to lush green in just a short couple weeks.
When ever more than two hunters are in camp (we generally have 4-6 hunters per camp) Shadow Creek has a cook on staff. A typical day starts around 9:00 A.M. with a brunch followed by skinning bears from the previous night. Serious hunting takes place from 4-11 o’clock P.M. Usually another meal and socializing wrap up around 1:00.
