More about us

Our company was established in 1988 and operates in 2 territories.

Deep Creek Outfitters has always ran our guiding business as a “quality over quantity” operation. When you book a hunt with Deep Creek Outfitters, you will likely be the only hunter in camp. This means that each client typically has multiple guides helping to fill the needs of each client.
We also pride ourselves on offering great camp accommodations for every hunt. Our camps typically consist of travel trailers, wall tents, or backcountry camps depending on the clients wants and needs.
When you book a hunt with Deep Creek Outfitters, you can be assured that we have scouted hard prior to the hunt to ensure the best chance of harvesting a quality animal. We spend many days in the field running trail cameras and glassing for big game.
The bottom line is Deep Creek Outfitters is operated by guys who love to spend time in the mountains. We guide because we enjoy doing it and want to see our clients succeed, not because we need to do it to make a living. The number one priority of all of our guides is to give each client the hunt of a lifetime.

About this hunt

We have been guiding lion hunts for many years in Utah, Nevada, and Arizona. We have some great hound dogs that have a ton of experience. Hunt conditions may range from 1′ of snow to dusty dry ground. We typically offer a 5-day hunt but will customize the hunt to fit clients wants and needs. We can also give a discount for groups of 2+ hunters. Transportation during the hunt may consist of trucks, UTV’s, or horseback. Most of these hunts are based out of our property in Nevada near the Utah border (30 minutes west of Enterprise, UT). The hunting camp has a small lodge, bunk rooms, shower, internet, TV, etc.. Because it gets dark so early and there is a lot of down time, we try to make camp as comfortable as possible. From our camp we are able to hunt any surrounding areas in Nevada and Utah. Occasionally we may used a mobile camp based out of travel trailers and possibly wall tents. We will also provide all the food and beverages (non-alcoholic) during the hunt. We typically hunt lions in the southeast corner of Nevada in the following units: 241, 231, 221, 271, etc... In Utah the units we offer guided hunts in: Pine Valley, Southwest Desert, Zion, Beaver

Where you will hunt

Territory

In the southwestern corner of Utah, this is one of the largest deer units in the state and includes the Pine Valley Mountains and several other ranges. It is not managed to produce trophy-class bucks but has produced some great deer, including the former state record typical. The big rugged mountains in this unit provide great glassing points but also make it difficult to make a play on the deer. Scouting will be your best bet to locate, pattern, and harvest these deer. Low country can hold good deer also, but the vast pinyon-juniper forest can make it extremely difficult to see the deer long enough to have a chance.

Fence type: Not fenced

Territory size: Varies depending on the unit

Languages spoken by staff: English Spanish

Operating since: 2019 year

Where you will stay

Pine Valley Hunting Camp

Camp accommodations can vary depending on the clients desire and needs. On hunts close to roads we typically have travel trailers and/or wall-tents and use trucks/ATV’s. Although these are “road hunts” we recommend being in good shape because a lot of hiking can be needed to avoid other hunters. We also try to utilize the horses to access remote areas whenever it is feasible. When hunting the backcountry, we use horse/mules/llamas to pack-in lightweight tents or wall tents. The backcountry hunts require a lot of hiking in steep terrain, so we recommend being in good physical condition to increase your odds of being successful.
