Bear’s return. Alaskan Bush People star Bear Brown revealed in June 2023 that he moved and shared insight into the decision in a video. More than one year later, in November 2024, the reality star posted an update on his living situation.
Where Does ‘Alaskan Bush People’ Star Bear Brown Live?
Bear took to Instagram on June 13, 2023, to explain that he had moved back to the mountains of Washington. He later shared in a November 7, 2024, video that his family was staying with brother Gabriel “Gabe” Brown’s pack “in a rent house.”
“It’s big enough for both of our packs together, but it’s only a temporary plan,” he said.
Bear revealed that “the plan” is to save enough money to purchase property that will “hopefully” be in Alaska. “That is definitely what we are shooting for,” he continued. “We all have a real strong love and connection with Alaska. It is a magnificent place.”
The TV personality added, “Now, the plan isn’t for us to stay in the same house. So the plan is similar to where the plan has always been. We’ll live on the same piece of property and we will have separate houses close by. But it’s gonna be really good to get a nice piece of land, our own piece of property like in Alaska.”
Bear said that although “the mountain is all good and well, it also has a lot of setbacks to it,” including harsh winters, tough roads and frequent forest fire scares.
“So right now, we are looking for another piece of property, and Alaska is where we’re looking … Alaska will always be home, and Raiven has a strong love for Alaska as well and we would love for our kids to be able to experience that,” he concluded.
Why Did ‘Alaskan Bush People’ Star Bear Brown Move Back to the Mountain?
“I have actually moved back on the mountain on a permanent basis now,” he announced in the June 2023 video. “I was spending all my time on North Star Ranch trying to get the mountain back going, get a home built up here.”
The TV personality added that he doesn’t currently have any electricity at his home or running water. “For water, I have to go to a well that I can hand pump or I can use a generator to pump it out faster, which is what I do for the horses,” Bear explained. “Unfortunately, though, gasoline is extremely expensive these days, so I will be running the generator as little as possible. I will be using [the] generator to run the well and at night in order to charge my phone and stuff like that.”
Bear then shared that he won’t be “in service.” While he has phone service “on the edge of the mountain,” he does not have service inside of the mountain or access to wifi.
“I just wanted everybody to know that I am officially back on mountain permanently,” he concluded.
Where Was ‘Alaskan Bush People’ Bear Brown Previously Living?
Before his return to Washington, Bear and his wife, Raiven Adams, spent time in Texas to be close to her family as they expected baby No. 2.
How Many Kids Does ‘Alaskan Bush People’ Star Bear Brown Have?
Raiven gave birth to the couple’s eldest son, River, in March 2020.
The pair grew their family when they welcomed their second son, Cove Gabriel Caden Brown, on January 20, 2023.
“Our son was born yesterday morning, it was my scheduled C-section,” Raiven wrote via Instagram on January 21. “We decided this was the best option due to risks and my first born being a C-section. Unfortunately he has a few things going on, so he is in the NICU. It’s so difficult making it to 38 weeks and baby boy going to the NICU like his big brother.”
Four days after Cove’s birth, Raiven gave an update about her youngest son’s health. “Cove was born with premature infant lung disease. He has done so so well and is hopefully going to have a short stay at the NICU,” she wrote via Instagram at the time. “Being born at 38 weeks and having this isn’t as common but unfortunately he is one of those cases. I can’t wait to have both my boys at home.”
Cove was eventually able to go home on January 28.
