About this hunt

**Dates available: 10/31-11/7 This hunt is a true backcountry Elk hunt. Our camps are fly-in only, so you have the chance to hunt some of the most remote areas in the lower 48. Because of our remoteness our area has little to no pressure from privates. This hunt is an 8-day guided hunt with 6 full days of hunting and 1 day to fly/pack in and 1 day to fly/pack out weather permitting. $8,200.00 for one guide servicing one client and $6,900.00 each for one guide servicing two clients. JULY 15th 2025 NON-RESIDENT TAG DEADLINE You will use Mission Mountain Aviation out of Missoula, MT to fly into our Main Moose Creek Camp. The flight price will be through Mission Mountain Aviation. The flight is around 35 minutes one-way and usually you will fly out at first light weather permitting. Once you arrive at our base camp located next to Moose Creek airstrip, we will begin packing your gear along with ours on our mules. Depending on time of year and what the hunter is comfortable with, we will ride between 2-6 hours to the camp we will be hunting out of. Our main camps will have a full-time camp cook and camp jack, if you're at a spike camp your guide will assume all roles. All of our camps are fully equipped to ensure a comfortable hunt. Our experienced guides have an intimate knowledge of the land and the behavior of Elk, ensuring an optimal hunting experience. We're one of the only places that allow rifle hunting in the rut! You have the opportunity to make this a combo hunt by adding additional tags such as deer, bear, and wolf which is highly encouraged. We're in unit 17 with guaranteed allocated tags, so you can rest assured that you'll have the opportunity to hunt some of the most impressive game. These tags have a deadline, so don't wait too long for the chance of a lifetime!
