About this hunt
Offering archery and general season Columbian blacktail deer hunts in the backcountry and wilderness of California’s B zones. If you are interested in a spot and stalk hunt in truly spectacular country and a chance at harvesting a mature blacktail buck this may be the perfect adventure for you. A “typical” day hunting deer consists of rising well before the sun and having a quick bite to eat. Wilderness hunting camps are placed at or very near prime glassing locations. For more front-country hunts we will usually have to wake a little earlier to get to a glassing knob. Using high quality optics and tripods we will pick apart the mountainsides looking for any part of a deer. Once a shooter buck is spotted we will plan a stalk based on the weapon, wind, the animals direction of travel, and the contours of the land. If a shooter buck has not been spotted by mid-morning, or if other hunters in your group have not yet had their chance, we may move locations slightly to get views of new territory. We move more with our glass than our bodies once in a good location. Bucks can be seen at any hour of daylight and we will glass all day if needed, but during the mid-day heat we will eat a more substantial lunch. Towards the evening we will make sure to be in a good position to spot bucks as they rise from their day beds. At dark we will head back to camp for a good meal and to relive the days hunt before getting much needed sleep. Deer hunts may be combined with bear hunts when the seasons overlap.

Classic wilderness camp. Comfortable but not lavish camp to access lower pressured haunts in remote sections of the wilderness and National Forest. Sleeping arrangements in wilderness camps include tent (or tarp if the guest prefers), sleeping bag, sleeping pad, and pack pillow.
Backcountry Camps
Backcountry camps are in comfortable vehicle accessible locations in the National Forest. This is your classic hunting style camp. We utilize dispersed camping areas along the many beautiful rivers and creeks in the area. Scenery and privacy is unbeatable. We setup camps before the guest arrives based on pre-season scouting. We like to be in the best location to access the desired species. Sleeping arrangements are tent, cot, sleeping pad, sleeping bag, and pillow. Tent heaters are used depending on time of the year and weather. Some camps have pit toilets, most do not.
