📲Hunt it with the app

In the field, log your hunt and snap photos right in HuntVibe — even landscape shots earn AI credits, and your success helps the next hunter scout Unit 26B. We record the unit, but your exact GPS coordinates are stripped on upload — your precise spot stays yours.

HuntVibe success here

Be the first to log a moose hunt in Unit 26B. As HuntVibe hunters tag out, their wins show up here at the unit level — we know the unit, but exact GPS coordinates are stripped from photos on upload, so the precise kill spot is never known or exposed. Real results, not rumors; spots stay private.

Field chatter

We're gathering what hunters say about Unit 26B across the web — aggregated, attributed, and labeled as opinion, never treated as fact.

Where these numbers come from
  • Draw odds: ADF&G published drawing statistics (% of applications drawn per hunt — pure lottery, no points)
  • Public land: USGS PAD-US 4.1 (BLM/NPS/USFS) + FWS R7 refuge surface estate ∩ ADF&G subunit land area (EPSG:3338; Native-corp, state & military land excluded)

2025-26 season data. Draw odds reflect past results and are not a guarantee of future draws — regulations and quotas change every year. Always verify on the official Alaska wildlife agency site before you apply.

Common questions

Alaska Unit 26B — straight answers

What are the 2025-26 draw odds for Alaska Unit 26B moose?

Best draw odds 4%. Based on real 2025-26 Alaska draw-odds results across 1 hunt code in the unit.

How much of Alaska Unit 26B is public land?

31% of Unit 26B is huntable public land — national forest, BLM, state game lands or state forest you can hunt without permission (national parks and permit-only refuges are not counted), measured from USGS PAD-US boundaries.

Can a nonresident draw Alaska Unit 26B moose with no points?

Best draw odds 4% — and Alaska has no point system at all, so every application is an equal lottery ticket. Some hunts restrict who may apply (residents only, guided nonresidents only); verify the hunt's conditions on the ADF&G site before applying.
