Guided Black Bear Hunting in
British Columbia
Fawnie Mountain Outfitters
Our
area has a very good reputation for large black bears
- the one time Pope & Young record for the province was
killed here. Our hunts are similar to the Vancouver Island
black bear hunts, producing similar size bears with excellent
coats due the colder winters. As licensed BC guides and
outfitters, Fawnie Mountain Outfitters offer a variety
of big game opportunities in the Chilcotin wilderness
of British Columbia. Our bears come in a variety of colours
- black, brown and blond, with black and brown as the
most common.
Our guides drive a 4x4 pickup truck to feeding areas,
glassing, spot and stalk. The bears are fresh from hibernation,
and their choice of feed in the area is green shoots,
clover, and dandelions. With our camps on lakes with floatplane
access, we are able to pick up hides soon after the kills,
so that we can freeze them without any danger of spoilage.
Rainbow trout are plentiful at the camp and at the lodge.
By now you have probably investigated several Canadian
bear hunts, ranging in price from $2,500 for the baited
tree stand hunts to $9,000 for a 2 bear hunt on Vancouver
Island. The Fawnie Mountain hunt is for the hunter that
wants super guides, big bears, quality food and accommodations,
many great memories, all at a reasonable price.
All hunters shoot at least 1 bear. One reason for our
high success on big bears is that we only have 6 hunters
per week for 2 weeks each Spring. 2011 bear hunt dates
are May 25-31 and June 1-7, 2011, when the bears are fresh
from hibernation, easy to find and the hides are excellent.
2011
prices for 7 day hunts
are $4,750 for 2x1 guided and $6,000 for 1x1 guided. A
kill fee in the amount of $800 US is charged for the second
bear when killed, NO kill fee is charged for the first
bear. These prices include the floatplane flight from
the bear camp to our fishing lodge at Moose Lake where
you will relax and fish for Wild Native Rainbows after
you have killed your bear- no extra charge for this. Fly
outs to rivers for dry fly Rainbow fishing are available
at cost of $400 per day. You may choose to stay at the
fishing lodge longer than the balance of your 7 day hunt,
if you do this a fee of $400 per day will be charged.

THIS IS A REAL CAST & BLAST ADVENTURE AT A GREAT
PRICE.
Hunting license cost is $180 CAN. Each bear license costs
$180 CAN. There is a Non Resident Hunting Preservation
Fee of $125 CAN. All fees are subject to a 5% tax. All
guides in BC charge the NRHP fee, and all guides in Canada
charge the 5% tax.
Your
hosts, the Blackwells have owned and operated this business
for 40 years. Some of the guides have been guiding here
12 years, some 10 years, etc. There is a sense of competition
among the guides to find the biggest bears. The organization
knows how to produce a quality hunting experience for
trophy animals.
