WYOMING
General region w
Our vision is to offer the highest quality Wilderness Elk Hunting opportunity in North America. Our outfitting operation is focused on providing high success and opportunities for quality bulls for each individual hunter. We separate ourselves from all other elk hunting opportunities in three main aspects.
-First and foremost the areas which we are permitted to hunt are strategically located surrounding Yellowstone Park. Our hunting areas are located on the most heavily used elk migration routes surrounding Yellowstone. The gene pool in our hunting locations is host to some of the best free-range elk in North America, resulting in our hunters consistently tagging out on the top-quality bulls in the western states each year.
-Secondly, our equipment, stock, and guides are top-of-the-line. We spare no expense on quality equipment supplying all camps with sound tents equipped with flooring, cots/foam sleeping pads, wood stoves with plenty of firewood, and a full backcountry kitchen and dining tent. Our base camps are all accessed with horses and mules for packing equipment and supplies into camp and elk back out of the mountains. Our guides are professional and know how to safely navigate the areas which you will hunt.
​
Our final aspect that brings everything together to create the utmost wilderness adventure and quality bull elk hunt is our outfitting management structure. The structure of our hunts and management of our hunting areas are based on principles that sustain quality game for years to come. As well as improve the hunting experience over time. Our outfitting management strategy reflects elite-quality big-game outfits in Alaska. We take a conservative number of hunters in our areas each season. This helps ensure that hunters who book future hunts know they can anticipate a high-quality elk hunt in the future. This is because our conservative management strategy allows for elk to feel safe in our hunting areas and thrive in the wilderness habitat as well as freely migrate into our hunting areas from other locations surrounding Yellowstone Park. Not only do we take a conservative number of elk hunters each season, but we also offer 11 and 12-day hunts which allow for 9 to 10 full hunting days. The longer hunts with conservative hunter numbers in high-quality wilderness areas coupled with top-of-the-line equipment, guides, and mountain horses result in the highest possible quality wilderness adventure and bull elk hunt for each and every hunter. Our goal is to offer over 100% opportunity on quality bulls for all hunters.
Guided 12-Day hunt (10 hunting days) $12,500
