This large unit is found in southeastern Alaska with the nearest large civilized area being Ketchikan. Hunters will find an abundance of Black Bear, Brown Bear, and Sitka Blacktail Deer in this area as well as opportunities for Rocky Mountain Goat and Moose. As with most of Alaska, obtaining access options into the various hunting grounds will generally be a larger issue than actually locating an area to hunt. Most of the hunting in this area will be conducted off of the various road systems, along rivers, and along the coastlines.
Hunters can find great hunting opportunities here, although transportation throughout the region will need to be heavily researched prior to the hunt.
Quick Tips
