Available Alaska Elk Hunts --- Search HF Aventures

The success rates on the famed Raspberry Island are still dismal at best. Most hunters willing to make the investment to harvest an Alaska elk are finding higher success on the western Afognak Island hunt. The following table provides information on most bull elk hunts available to non-residents. A guide is not required in Alaska to hunt Roosevelt elk for those lucky enough to draw a permit.

Alaska Elk Draw

All elk hunts in Alaska should not be considered trophy quality hunts. All hunters will have to be cognizant of brown bears as they navigate some of the nastiest coastal terrain available in Alaska. Hunters should expect to pay at least $7,000 in transport fees to embark on a self-guided experience no matter which permit is drawn. All islands are remote and usually require hunters to backpack from the beach to the island interior to find elk. In southeast Alaska (Etolin and Zarembo Islands), the success rate on elk hunts is much lower than in unit 8 and the draw odds are just as slim with the added pressure of the local resident applications.
