Idaho Black Bear (Spring) — Clearwater Region

Classic spring spot & stalk bear hunting in Idaho's Clearwater wilderness — hunting bears off the snow as they emerge from their dens in May and June. This is pure Western bear hunting: glassing open slopes, locating bears in the green-up vegetation, and executing careful stalks in dramatic Idaho wilderness country.

Spring is the premier season for black bear hunting in Idaho. Bears are highly visible against the remaining snow and their hides are at their best. The Clearwater region produces bears with exceptional coat quality in a variety of color phases. 6-day hunt with experienced Clearwater Outfitters guides who know every drainage in the region.
