My wife, Diana, and I started C Bar C Outfitters in 1985 and in the past 40 years have met many wonderful people in the hunting industry. We ran a year round outfitting operation in Oregon, Washington, and Nevada from 1985 thru 1995. During that time we ran horseback hunts for Rocky Mountain elk and Mule deer in the North Fork John Day Wilderness, Bear hunts with hounds and over bait in Oregon, Cougar hunts with hounds in Oregon and Nevada and Summer horseback pack trips in the wilderness. In 1996 we cut back to part time outfitting business in part due to laws regulating the use of hounds in Oregon. At the time, we were used to making our own schedule and were in the process of raising our two sons and going to all of their sporting events so we started another business (a bottled water business). After the boys were grown, we sold the water bottling business in 2005. We went back to the hunting industry full time. In 2005 I started guiding elk hunts in New Mexico during September, October, and November while Diana was cooking for all the hunts. Then later in December we went to South Texas where Diana did the cooking and I guided for big South Texas Whitetails, for Greg Simmons of Wildlife Systems. With our bird preserve on our ranch in Oregon we haven’t been traveling to New Mexico or Texas anymore. We love being able to provide a relaxing and enjoyable hunting experience in Beautiful Eastern Oregon for all of our good friends and wonderful people we have met over the past 40 years in the hunting industry.
