HUNT FOR GIANT KAMCHATKA MOOSE

The Kamchatka Peninsula could be compared to what Alaska may have been like many years ago before huge populations of Man & his super-cub planes left their negative mark. Huge Brown Bears, Giant Moose & Snow Sheep still in-habit these remote lands. Similar plant life, birds & Salmon prove that these 2 lands were joined at one time. The total lack of a human population in the remote regions assures quality hunting. Generally a much better weather pattern with less rain, fog & more high ground which permits the use of snowmobiles, horses & better walking. Cabins, tents, generators, better meals with superior nutrition over a wet pup tent & freeze dried food. Single specie & multi-specie combos are higher % of success. This game rich area can be accessed from Anchorage or Moscow. Awesome values of tourist shopping in Petro of carvings, & unique gifts. The largest Moose in the world inhabits Kamchatka peninsula. The average weight of trophy Moose horns varies from 30 to 40 kilos (75 - 100 pounds), their average length is 130-175 cm (51-69 in.).There are two periods as well as hunting methods for Moose hunt. First - hunt for Moose in rut season which is during about 2 weeks at the end of September. Our guides use special tube for Moose calling. We use horses and jeeps on this hunt for transportation. Second - hunt with using snow mobiles on the period from late November till mid December. Guide driving snow mobile with client behind in a sledge find a Moose track and follow it. Snowmobiles allow 40-60 miles of travel per day. The air temperature during the hunt is: September +10 - +20° C (+50 - +70 F), October +5 - +10° C (+25 - +50 F), November -20 - -10° C (-5 - +15 F).
