Glassing for Moose

10 January 2019

Hunting Moose in Alaska

Welcome to the Self-Guided Alaskan Hunting Adventures on Hawke Life. The sun is shining as day begins. The hunt base camp is located in a stunning part of moose country surrounded by incredible mountains and beautiful deep valleys.

After breakfast the team head out and begin glassing for moose, it isn’t long until they have action. A young bull, two cows and a calf are grazing in the distance. It is encouraging to see so many animals so soon after arriving in camp. However, not too far away is a much larger bull that appears to be legal.

Continuing on their journey, the team find a comfortable spot on the ground and glass the surrounding area. With an outstanding view like this, it is better to let the binoculars and spotting scope do the work. Once they see a legal bull the team can plan their approach. It is a team effort and they discuss and agree on the best strategy.

It has been a productive morning and the team decide to break for lunch. It really is a luxury to be able to head back to hunt base camp whilst taking the opportunity to glass the valley from a slightly different angle.

It’s a team effort... ...Their patience is rewarded as another huge bull moose appears in the distance.

Their patience is rewarded as another huge bull moose appears in the distance. However, with the shadows beginning to lengthen, they head back to camp and regroup in the morning.

It has been another incredible day in the Alaskan wilderness glassing for moose. There has been a massive amount of animal movement in the area and the team are excited for the next day where they will hopefully harvest a bull moose.
