Leaving The World Behind

Wilderness bear camp is good for the soul!

Bowhunting isn't about the kill. It's about the experience. That was especially true during the June 2023 black bear hunt Associate Editor Mark Demko and I enjoyed at All Terrain Bear Hunts in Manitoba, Canada. You see, for Mark and me — and countless thousands of fellow bowhunters who live in the densely populated, heavily developed Northeast — finding a true wilderness hunting experience close to home is impossible.
