Polar wolf huntPOLAR WOLF HUNT
Polar wolf hunt on snowmobilesFresh air, magnificent pristine nature and driving on snowmobiles will provide an unforgettable trip to the wild!
Tour Duration: 10 – 12 days
The best number of hunters in the group; 2-6 people and 1-3 guides
After arriving at the Magadan Airport and getting luggage and weapons, hunters are taken by car to the Koubaka area (960 km) with a overnight stop in the Omsukchan village.
All the necessary equipment, including stoves, tents, generators, snowmobiles, fuel, provision etc., are prepared beforehand at the base camp.
At the Koubaka site hunters spend a night and the next day by snowmobiles go to a base camp where our guides and staff already wait for them.
IMPORTANT
We recommend you to inform us in advance on what hunting equipment you are bringing with you.
Clothes and shoes should be comfortable and warm enough, suitable for snowmobile drive at low temperatures (-40 C). It is also necessary to take with you ski goggles and a protective face mask, as well as a camouflage jacket.
It is possible to purchase the equipment at our store, just inform us in advance about the footwear and clothes size.
A sleeping bag and rug should be warm enough in case of overnight stays in tents.
The Hunt
The hunt is carried out on snowmobiles, hunters with guides go around the hunting territory later returning to the base camp or staying in spike camps where necessary.
Every day hunters with guides explore the territory looking for possible tracks of wolves. Once the wolf is spotted, he is carefully stalked in order to make the hunt more effective and successful.
After the hunt, trophies (skin and skull) are taken to the base camp.
We use snowmobiles to move around the hunting lands as the territory is vast (more than 1 million hectares) and usually hunters cover up to 100-150km daily.
Thus, using snowmobiles and covering large area increases our chances of spotting a trophy and having a successful hunt.
In order to move over long distances we use spike camps for overnight.
Accommodation: Accommodation is provided in base camps and mobile spike-camps. Base camp includes log-houses with sauna and generators, kitchen etc. While moving away from the base camp, we provide spike camps in remote areas: tents are equipped with wood-burning tin stoves. Additional: while hunting for wolf it is also possible to hunt for wolverine (Gulo gulo) - is the largest land-dwelling species of the family Mustelidae. The adult wolverine size is usually ranging from 65-80 cm.(25-32 in), tail -15-25 cm (5-10 in),height -35-45 cm (15-18 in), weight -9-30 kg (22-65 lb). The males are larger than females. Several subspecies are distinguished: Eurasian, Siberian, Yakut and North-Eastern wolverine.
