About this hunt

We offer a 6 Day Archery and Rifle Hunts. Archery Hunts take Place from Aug 25th to September 16th followed by Rifle Starting Sept 17th to November 30th. The Most Exhilarating being the early Season peak of the Rut +- the First 3 weeks of September when the Bulls are Fighting for Dominance and Eager to respond to Bugling, Chuckling, and Cow Calls as they are still on the move building there Harem. That’s when the Big Herd Bulls let their Guard down and come charging in on Your Guides/ your Bugling and Chuckles leaving the golden opportunity you have long awaited for. Elk numbers continue to increase in our Prime Elk Country Sweet Spots, 4 and 5 Point Bulls have become common place and 6 Point the goal. We offer River Float Hunts (*Note: Pending River and weather conditions); also ATV Hunts into remote Hunting areas where all you will see is Mother Nature’s Best. We also offer Spot and Stalk and Tree Stand Hunt’s that also produce excellent results. ​ Looking for an exciting Elk hunting experience and an opportunity to get up close and (UN) comfortable with a Screaming, Tree thrashing Chest rattling Herd Bull hunt is your perfect opportunity. You will have a chance to see a number of Bulls over the three point minimum requirement and a good probability on an opportunity at the Wall hanger you have dreamed of. Elk numbers have increased substantially over the last 10 years in our area and now producing more mature Bulls over 300 inches. We are hunting in one of the few areas in North America where our clients can pursue Bulls in the peak of the Rut with Archery or Rifle. ​

Good hunt

9.0 of 10

Hospitality was tremendous, food and accommodations excellent. Looking forward to a return trip.

Weather didn't cooperate, it was just too warm. That is no one's fault and we hunted hard regardless.

Good value for money
