Backcountry Flights out of Missoula, MT?

[alaskabound]

My wife and I will be flying into Missoula on June 18th for some hiking and bear hunting. I would like to surprise her with a flight into Moose Creek but I am having trouble locating anyone offering backcountry flights out of Missoula. If you have a contact, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you. I spoke to them yesterday and that is who we are going with.

Very cool. I'm curious on the cost for the two of you each way, I'm considering a similar trip next year.

$440 each way from Stevensville (the Hamilton runway will be closed in June) to Fish Lake.
$560 each way from Missoula to Fish Lake.

Are you going hunting for bears, or just looking for them?

We aren't specifically hunting for bears, it's more of a hiking trip but I will have a tag and my rifle.

I’m pretty sure season ends June 15. I just checked the regs for myself on that but didn’t see any after that.

I believe you are looking at Montana, we will be hiking/hunting in Idaho. I appreciate it though, it wouldn't be the first mistake I've made.
