Hunt location

South Kodiak Island

Greater Deadman Bay – Remote, Wild, and Game-Rich

Your adventure takes place on the less-populated south side of Kodiak Island, specifically in and around Greater Deadman Bay. This region is renowned for its large populations of Sitka black-tailed deer and frequent opportunities to spot mountain goats.

The size and stability of The Valiant make transporting hunters throughout this region safe and reliable.
