This acreage consists of two areas. One is the primitive weapons area, designated so by the government, and is for Muzzleloader and Archery only.

Chapleau is called the Black Bear Capital of Canada and for good reason. The area's terrain supplies our bears with enough food to proliferate in great numbers and get big. Logging in the area has opened up new grasslands where berry bushes grow and allow small game to increase in numbers. This combined with all the lakes and streams has produced a large population of big Black Bears. On top of all this is the close proximity of the Chapleau Crown Game Preserve, which is the biggest game preserve in the world. No hunting is allowed on the preserve but the bears leave the preserve and wonder into our BMA.

The bear hunt consists of mainly stand hunting with bait. We will pre-bait for approximately two weeks prior to your arrival. depending on the party size, we generally keep 2-3 stands active per hunter for the duration of your stay. It is quite common to see multiple bears during a single morning or evening sitting period. You will generally have the best luck during the morning or evening, so we suggest three to 4 hours of sititng time during these times.
