31 March Spring Bear Drop Camps March 31, 2021By Monica Oliver Announcements, General Information, Guided Hunts, Idaho Black Bear Hunts Bear Hunts, Black Bear Hunts, DIY Hunt, Drop Camp, Drop Camps, Idaho Black Bear Hunts 0 With Idaho’s 2021 spring bear season beginning this week, we are grateful that we are pretty much booked up on our guided hunts, but new for 2021, we are offering spring bear drop camps for those DIY hunters who to prefer the challenge of hunting on their own and more of the spot and stalk element of bear hunting. This is a more affordable option over guiding, puts you in charge of your own schedule and may just be the ticket for that pent up wintertime cabin fever! We will pack you into a back country camp, drop you off, show you a couple of pre-baited sites you can sit in the evenings and leave you to your own hunting experience. We will then come pick you up at a predetermined time and hope to hear tall tales of faraway places and hopefully be able to congratulate on a well-placed shot on an Idaho bear! For more info on this new option from Wild Idaho outfitters and Castle Creek Outfitters this year, contact us! Best of luck with spring bear hunts this year and remember to get out and enjoy YOUR public lands!

The reduced-price or “wilderness tag” is good for all of Unit 27 and those portions of Unit 28 within the Frank Church Wilderness, as well as within most designated wilderness areas in the state of Idaho.
