Videographer Corey Brossman with a Black Bear filmed for Cabin Country episode
#1325 |
Northern Wilderness Outfitter's main lodge is located approx. 3 hours
north of Edmonton, Alberta in a pristine country setting known for both Moose
and Deer. NWO's bear camp is on the banks of the Wabasca river 3 hours
further north from the main lodge. Bear densities are incredible and
hunters booking with NWO have the opportunity to take 2 bears on each hunt!
The Cabin Country team harvested the bear and wolf shown on this page during the
2004' season. We saw many bears from a variety of different hunting stands
and locations. The food at spike camp was excellent and the accommodations
for a spike camp were great! One interesting note is that Black Flies (the
nemesis of all bear hunters) are virtually non-existent in Alberta.
Mosquito's can be thick but generally not till later in the season.
We hunted with a custom built Tar-Hunt shotgun - made by Randy Fritz in
Bloomsburg, PA. Shotguns are excellent medicine for the bears of this
region. Also, 1 out of every 3 bears is a color phase Black Bear.
