About this hunt
A Rocky Mountain Goat is one of the most challenging of all hunts. Hunting a WSLO goat provides a true rocky mountain experience.The goat population in our area is one of the very best in BC. The large population boasts an average horn length over the past 15 years of 9 1/2 in. This hunt is mainly done out of remote camps. Hunters need to be physically prepared for hiking, backpacking and horseback riding. Later season hunts add the challenge of snow cover, however, the rewards are a more luxurious coat that makes a beautiful trophy. Goat hunts are pretty much on foot from the trailhead. Steep rugged terrain. All prices are subject to change. Each hunt includes picking up the hunters and returning them to the local airport providing the hunter arrives at the scheduled date and time. Each hunt normally includes one day in for arrival and one day out for departure. Your hunt will not be considered booked until a 30% deposit has been received. All hunts must be paid in full by June 1 of the hunt year Add-on mule deer or elk: $1500 trophy fee Non hunting companion $250/day US

Absolutely amazing
My whole experience was awesome, a welcomed break from work with extremely friendly and accommodating people, I was made feel like one of their family. The food, the accommodation, the entertainment was all top class. I was successful in my hunt but I also saw loads of wildlife, unbeleiveable scenery, met other interesting people in camp, told stories, heard stories, the complete package experience for long lasting memories. I fully recommend this outfitter choice and I can't wait to return here again to visit my friends, let's hope it's not too long.
Having to leave to return home.
Excellent hunting experience
Mountain Goat Hunt
The whole trip was excellent. Between the mental and physical challenges to the unreal camp and good food and even better people. Can't ask for more with whiteswan and Daryle and Joyce. This hunt was amazing and a hunt no one would forget! Thanks again
