This smaller unit is found in southeastern Alaska and houses the famous Chilkat River and the towns of Haines and Skagway. Hunters will find an abundance of Black Bear and Brown Bear in this area as well as opportunities for Rocky Mountain Goat. 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. This unit finds itself at the end of the Alcan Highway and will generally serve as a good hub for DIY hunters to use ferries or air taxi services.
Hunters can find great hunting opportunities here although transportation throughout the region will need to be heavily researched prior to the hunt. Fortunately, because of a higher population and recreational draw this area tends to see more road and trail access than some of the surrounding units.
