I know a good Alaska guide because I am an Alaska guide. When it comes to true backcountry adventure, Scott McCrae and Alaska Summit Guide Service set the gold standard. Scott isn’t just another outfitter—he’s spent the last 25+ years mastering Alaska’s rugged terrain, from its towering peaks to remote river valleys. His knowledge of the land, deep respect for the wildlife, and commitment to ethical, fair-chase hunting make every hunt a true adventure. Whether you’re after Dall sheep, moose, bear (both black and brown), caribou, or mountain goat, Scott’s expertise ensures that you’re in the best possible hands.

But success in the Alaskan backcountry isn’t just about knowing the land—it’s about physical preparation. Scott understands the level of fitness required for these demanding hunts and helps his clients prepare for the challenge, ensuring they’re ready to take on the mountains. Hunting in Alaska isn’t for the faint of heart—it’s for those who embrace the challenge, respect the wilderness, and seek an adventure that pushes them to their limits. Scott McCrae embodies that spirit. He doesn’t just guide hunts; he lives the Alaskan lifestyle, navigating some of the most extreme and unforgiving terrain with skill, confidence, and peak physical conditioning. His time in the field has taught him that fitness; both mental, and physical, isn’t optional—it’s essential.

He specializes in small groups in BIG country, ensuring every client gets the personal attention, strategy, and experience necessary for success. He understands what it takes to be successful in the field and, more importantly, how to create an unforgettable experience for his clients. If you’re looking for an outfitter who knows the land, the animals, and the demands of true wilderness hunting Alaska Summit Guide Service is where your next adventure begins. Can you keep up?
