Mark........if you want to go this spring I can get you in to two different lodges for $2500 US including taxes and your bear licence. These are hunts that would normally be $3500. Essentially they are selling the 7 day hunts for $2000 plus taxes and bear licence.
Both have lodge accommodations and great meals. Both offer super bear hunting. One is in SW Manitoba near Riding Mountain National Park and also offers some walleye fishing and gopher shooting. The other is further north, east of The Pas and is a bit more remote and has very good fishing as well for walleye, pike and lake trout.
This quality of hunt does not get any cheaper. These guys simply will not fill their hunts if they can't get what I am quoting you as they cannot operate for cheaper.
Let me know if you need further details on either hunt.
Cheers,
Kelly
