Thank you for inquiring about Red Bear Guides.  We are an honest and hard working outfit, that will do everything we can to help you get your trophy of a lifetime.  Hunting in Alaska is quite different from hunting in the lower 48 states.  There are many factors that affect your hunt in the wilderness of Alaska.  Hopefully this letter will give you the information you need to understand what you will encounter and what you can expect, so your hunt can be planned and enjoyed.  And most of all, successful!

Red Bear Guides, owned and operated by licensed guide Creig Butler, who has been guiding hunters in Alaska for many years. We provide guided hunts for Brown Bear, Grizzly Bear, Moose, Caribou, Black Bear. We take personal pride in having produced many memories for our many clients.

Registered Guide Creig Butler and his assistants will be helping you in the logistics of your trip as well as guiding you in the field.

We have a variety of hunts and trips to accommodate the hard core backpack hunter as well as the client who prefers the more gentleman type hunts.

Mobility is the key element to our success. We make use of boats and airplanes to give you the best opportunity for having a successful trip.  We provide fully guided hunts, tent/bomb shelter camps, breakfast, lunch, dinner, and taxidermy preparation of the hides.  The specific trip you choose will help us to determine whether you will be hunting out of a camp, tent, a lodge, by boats or, on foot. Whichever trip you choose, we will provide you with a knowledgeable guide, good food and warm shelter in a productive game area.

New for this year is our exclusive peninsula brown bear hunting area that provides us with both coastal and interior areas to hunt. Our hunts are primarily for Brown Bear, Grizzly Bear, Moose, Caribou, Black Bear.

Though we have large areas to hunt, we hunt in small groups. There are generally one guide and one hunter in the field at one time. This allows for us to be more personally involved in your hunt.

We try to take trophy animals out of our areas to insure the future of our hunting stock of quality game. Example: Brown Bear 9'- 10' Male, Grizzly Bear 7'- 9' Male, Moose 58"- 70"

All hunting is done in accordance with both State and Federal Fish and Wildlife regulations. Any violations of these regulations will be reported to fish and wildlife departments.
