Pennsylvania Black Bear — Pocono Mountains

Pennsylvania has one of the densest black bear populations in the entire eastern United States, and the Pocono Mountains are at the epicenter. This 5-day guided rifle hunt puts you in the heart of prime bear habitat during the fall rifle season — the most active bear movement period of the year as bears fatten up for winter.

Hunt a mix of hardwood ridges, hemlock drainages, and agricultural edges that concentrate bears. Our guides use a combination of drives and still-hunting to maximize your chances. Pennsylvania offers liberal bear hunting regulations and the state harvest is among the highest in the nation.
