Alaska Moose Hunting InformationAlaska Moose hunting season is September 5 - 15 for Non-resident moose hunting in Game Management Unit (GMU) 17 B for eleven days of moose hunting. Moose hunting in Resident Only area is August 20 - September 15 with resident registration permit or Sept 1 - 15 without the permit. Within Game Management Unit (GMU) 17 B, Alaska Private Guide Service offers two Non-Resident Hunting Areas. The main river corridor area where we use the jet boats requires a free registration permit.This river corridor permit allows you to moose hunt within 2 miles of the main rivers and creeks. Although there are some good places with moose hunting outside of the corridor, they are generally tough to reach by plane or boat. So hunters in this area should have the permit. The other non-resident area is a fly in only area where hunters must be able to walk up to 3 miles from the base camps. In both areas; non-residents must take a moose with a minimum 50" spread OR a moose with four brow tines on one side. Since the season for brown bear hunting overlaps moose hunt season in both areas; most non-resident hunters are choosing the Alaska moose and brown bear combination hunt. We have a separate Resident Hunting Only area. Moose hunters with the resident registration permit (must sign up before August 31 in person, in Dillingham) can start moose hunting August 20th and may take any size bull. Or, without the permit, hunters may take a spike/fork or 50" spread or three brow tine moose from Sept 1-15. All of the GMU 17 moose hunting camps have excellent fishing free- with the most variety along the main rivers. All moose hunters will fly commercially through Anchorage to Dillingham with non-residents continuing on to Koliganek. In Game Management Unit 20, Alaska Private Guide Service offers a Resident and Non-Resident Moose Hunting Area. The benefits of a GMU 20 moose hunt are: the prices are less because the logistics are cheaper, and there is no minimum trophy size. GMU 20 hunters fly to Fairbanks commercially. Hunting brown bear, black bear, caribou, wolf, wolverine, and some small game is also available. See the price information for costs and kill fees.
