Well, it is difficult to successfully go hunting in an area that does not have the animal you are hunting.

And if I'm paying thousands of dollars for a bear hunt, I would want to hunt as long as possible and not have the guide call it a night because it got "dark". People all over Alaska continue to enjoy the great outdoors in the dark. Campfires, flashlights, lanterns ... Basic components of fishing, hunting and camping supplies.

Doesn't mean the guide or he was acting unnecessarily unwisely.
