Hunting Trips

The Camps

We offer two types of camps to suit your hunting needs: Supplied Drop Camps and Drop Camps.

Our Supplied Drop Camps include everything you need for a comfortable camp setup—except for food, hunting gear, and personal items.

Our Drop Camps are a more basic option—we’ll pack in and drop off your gear and supplies, giving you a solid starting point for your hunt.

Tags

Archery tags are now draw-only for both deer and elk.
Rifle season tags are also draw-only, with elk tags typically being a 100% draw on the first choice for the first and second season. Deer tags have about a 90% draw rate.

We also offer Guided Hunts on occasion—these are full-service hunts where everything is provided except for personal and hunting gear.

For a complete list of what’s included and detailed pricing, visit the individual hunt pages.

Take your hunt to the next level with a professionally guided backcountry experience. Spots fill fast—reserve yours today!

All hunts are booked on a first-come-first-served basis with a 50% deposit.

A 3% Forest Service Fee will be charged to all trip prices.

A 3% charge will be added to all Credit/Debit Transactions.

Deposits roll over to the next year if tags are not drawn.

Supplied Drop Camps

Our Supplied Drop Camps include everything you need—except for food, hunting gear, and personal items.

Each camp comes with 2 mules plus 1 additional mule per hunter (extra mules available for $175 each).
Each mule can carry up to 120 lbs or the bulk of two large duffle bags—keep in mind that bulk matters just as much as weight. If you have any questions about how or what to pack, feel free to email or call us.

Please note, no stock will be left in camp.
