More about us

Our company was established in 2000 and operates in 1 territory.
Our focus is on Quality, not Quantity. It does not stop at trophy quality, it's the quality of the whole experience. Most of our hunts are booked exclusively, so you are not sharing camp with lots of other people, therefore you are guaranteed to have the focus and attention of our staff.

About this hunt

PLEASE NOTE: We hunt in limited entry units and you need to have DRAWN A TAG prior to booking. Rifle Bull hunts are seven day, camp or lodge, with guaranteed five full days of hunting, and rarely last the whole week. With no more than five or six hunters in all three areas (#62,63,64), for the entire season, our hunters can expect the highest quality service, in a hunting environment that never feels crowded. We enjoyed 100% success in 2016 with all bulls being better than 300 B&C! The Rifle season opens October 1st and runs through the 21st. Fly-Fishing can be added to the hunting trip what is world class and very unique because or steams are pure Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout fisheries. Quite a hot ticket for those fishermen in pursuit of their North American Cutthroat Slam. Fly fishing days: $1,000 per day - single, $750 per day - double, $500 per day - three or more. Please inquire for available dates.

Where you will stay

Camp

PLEASE NOTE: We hunt in Limited Entry units and you need to have drawn a tag prior to booking. We have two camps located within 3 hrs of the Lodge. Our camps are a licensed Wilderness Camp in the Shoshone National Forest. Our high camp is mainly used in the Archery season as early snows can move Elk down quickly. The Lower camp is located only a 1 1/2 hr ride and provides great opportunity for a late season Rifle hunt.
