Available Alaska Muskox Hunts --- Search HF Aventures
Muskox permits were reduced slightly this year for the fall season on Nunivak Island. While residents have some open registration hunts available, non-residents must draw a permit to hunt anywhere in the state. Nunivak Island (unit 18) will have both a fall 2025 hunt and a winter 2026 hunt available in this draw period. Permit holders will need to hire a local transporter for lodging, meals, and transportation to the remote portions of the island to locate herds of muskox. Fall hunters will be confined to the coastal areas along the beach using a transporter’s boat. Winter hunters will be able to access almost all reaches of the island with the use of snowmobiles and sleds. Huntin’ Fool recommends that hunters apply in the muskox draw as a party of two so that two hunters can split some costs and share fees. Although a guide is not required for this free-ranging species, self-guided hunters should expect to pay $8,000-$12,000 each for airplane fees, transporter services, locking-tag cost, access permits, and other associated travel costs.
