Available Alaska Bison Hunts --- Search HF Aventures
Alaska is home to three huntable bison populations with draw permits. The Chitina / Copper River herd is still struggling to come back from a winter die off event and should probably be forgotten about for the time being. All hunts are controlled by draw permits for residents and non-residents. Most resident applicants apply for the Delta Junction area hunts due to the fact that the hunting area is located in close proximity to the Alaska Highway and it does not require remote airplane charters. There are no known outfitters in the Delta Junction area for bison. The herd in the Farewell area will likely require charter airplanes, snowmobiles, or an outfitter to access the remote bison habitat but provides a great chance at a trophy bull.
