Alaska Brown Bear: A Brown Bear Hunt on the Alaska Peninsula – An Extraordinary Adventure

By Jerry Edgington

Few experiences in life are true adventures; even fewer are truly extraordinary. Rarely, very rarely are they both; where the past and the future collide in an unforgettable present moment. Where the senses, the intellect and the spirit and harmony in the experience. I hadn't imagined that an Alaska Peninsula bear hunt would be one of those adventures. I've experienced moments of truth when hunting—the rush of spotting game, the stalk, and the shot. But that changed on this hunt. Connecting to the transcendent silence of Alaska, nature as pure as it comes; that became my real moment of truth. It became my real world, more than the one I had le behind. My bear hunt was more than I expected and maybe more than I was prepared for, but not more than I wanted, or needed, and in the end it had little to do with getting a bear.

Jerry Edgington

I'm a pretty average guy who appreciates nature and wildlife and is amazed by the design of the world and all the connecting pieces. I'm also drawn to adventure, to seeing the world, safely of course (sometimes I miss a bit on that part). ese things seem fairly innocuous, but in combination can be a formula for creating extraordi- nary experiences in nature. With my sons, I've hunted around the world, embracing opportunities that come out of nowhere. From Alaska to Africa to New Zealand and points in between. We've hunted and shed and explored the world we nd beautiful and fascinating. Alaska Brown Bear is one adventure I had to do without the boys. A er sharing this one with them, I'm certain they'll look for, and nd one of their own just like it, or even better. It created a hunger for more adventures and each has become its own story and has built unforgettable memories. My publisher calls me the Accidental Adventure Opportunist.
