Q. When is the bear season?
Our four week baited bear hunting season generally falls during the month of September. For details on our seasons please visit our Bear Dates Page

Q. How far to town?
The closest town is Fort Kent Maine (20 miles) and the closest city is Presque Isle (60 miles)

Q. Do you supply vehicles or will I be driving my own?
We will drive most hunters to their hunting location. Some prefer to take their own vehicle and this may be an option. You can discuss it with your guide.

Q. What kind of stands will I be hunting from?
All of our tree stands are metal ladder stands with a shooting rail for the firearms hunters, and plenty of room for the bow hunters.

Q. How do I get my license and how much does it cost?
Licenses are best purchased on line before you arrive at moses.

Q. What is the weather like?
Depending on the week you hunt average temperatures may be in the 40's at night and upper 60's during the day. However we can and do get unseasonably warm and cold weather so you should be prepared for both.

Q. Can I fish?
Fishing is available.

Q. What type of weapon should I use?
During the bear hunt you have the ability to utilize your weapon of choice. Some will use a bow and then switch to a gun later in the week if unsuccessful. We recommend a .30 caliber or larger if using a firearm.
