Andrew Lake Lodge & Camps

Atlantic Walrus

This is an eight day 1on 4 hunt with six full days of hunting.

This hunt is operated in partnership with Hall Beach Hunters and Trappers committee. Adventure Northwest is the booking agent for this community. We do not operate this hunt and therefore can only act as your agent when dealing with the community. On occasion hunts do not work out exactly as the hunter thinks they should. This must be resolved with the community before the hunter leaves Hall Beach.

This hunt includes six full days of guided hunting and is truly the arctic experience of a lifetime! You will hunt the Walrus out of eighteen or twenty foot boat/canoes as the locals have done for decades. Typically, each hunter will have two boats, with one guide and three helpers to ensure a safe, and pleasurable experience. Walrus are usually shot while they are on the ice flows. If it does get in the water, your helpers will harpoon it to ensure that it does not sink.

If you do not want the additional cost of staying in the hotel at Hall Beach, there is a camp set up that you may use at no extra cost. It is a short ten-minute drive from town, and the head guide, Ike Angtautuq will make the necessary arrangements for you. If you are planning on staying in camp you will want to bring a fishing rod, as the sea run Arctic Char are often begging to be cooked up for supper!

If you tag out early, you will be able to go Seal hunting and bird watching. Imagine floating among the icebergs as walrus, seal, polar bear, and a wide variety of water foul hustle about the Fox Basin; known as the best place in the world to hunt the Atlantic Walrus.

Hunt Price: $6,695.00 USD includes 1 Walrus and 2 Seals.

THINGS THAT ALL HUNTERS MUST BE AWARE OF

Travel to and from Hall Beach is the hunter's responsibility.

All hunting licenses and tags are purchased by the hunter when he/she gets to Hall Beach.

All food and lodging while in the town of Hall Beach is the hunters responsibility and can cost as much as three hundred dollars ($300.00) a day (Canadian). This includes days lost to bad weather, before, after, and during the hunt. If he/she tags out early, he/she will be brought back to Hall Beach, and will have to pay for food and lodging until the departure of his/her flight.

There is a very good chance the hunter will lose a couple days of his/her hunt to bad weather, equipment breakdowns or both.

The hunter may need to take the taxi from the airport to the hotel ($10.00 per person) and return on your way home.

The hunter will need to have Canadian currency on hand as there are very few places in Hall Beach that accept credit cards.

Hunters are highly encouraged to buy trip cancellation insurance. If the hunter does not know where to purchase this we can assist in obtaining it.
