Prince of Whales fall bear tag

[Muley Chaser]

Limits--Thanks for pointing that out. I will call the game department tomorrow and confirm that I will be able to use a land vehicle. It appears that that restriction was lifted in 2012 when they went to draw only 30 tags for non resident fall hunters. At least that what I am hoping for.

Shouldn't your guide/lodging people (especially since they provided a vehicle) provide guidance whether or not it's legal to use said vehicle?

I'm jealous of you going up there for a big Bear hunt. Good luck, and have a great time.

We are not using a guide. The cabin we rented had the option to also rent a vehicle. Per Alaska regulations, residents are not suppose to give non residents information on hunting areas  . I looked up the current controlled use areas in the regulations and the one that was posted earlier is not there or I couldn't find it. Pretty sure it was lifted in 2012. I will for sure be calling in tomorrow to confirm. Thanks for the comments guys, I am truly hoping for the trip of a lifetime.

Confirmed with Alaska fish and game that the controlled use restriction has been lifted. There are no restrictions on vehicle use. Time to start looking at my map to figure out what area we want to focus on.
