The majority of Sitka
Blacktail hunters plan their trips around the rut in November, however, there
are some excellent options for hunting earlier in the season, which begins on
August 1st.
Hunting the Early Season
This time of year Alaska is lush and green bringing the
deer out in the open to feed to get the nutrition required to grow their
antlers and build up fat stores for the harsh winters that Alaska is known for.
Early season hunts (August-September) can offer a wide variety of hunting opportunities while rut hunts are more
concentrated around the shore lines, with the primary access being by ocean,
because of limited accessibility due to snow. I chose an early season hunt (Aug 24-31) for
us because we really enjoy hiking and a spot and stock hunt method, so from
here on I will focus on early season hunting information.
