What sets us apart from other Outfitters ?
Our area is a 2 Bear area, meaning up to 2 bears per hunter.
Our area is a 2 lion area.
We offer September RIFLE HUNTS DURING THE RUT.
Our Outfit is a combination of 2 former outfitting businesses and is currently one of Idaho's Largest backcountry outfitting businesses in area size.
We do not overcrowd our camps. Most of our camps only have 2 hunters per hunt.
We do not mix hunting parties in our pack in camps.
The fires in the past years have burned many acres and created excellent elk & deer habitat.
We are in a joint party agreement with River of No Return Lodge to provide Lodging services during our spring bear and fall mule deer hunts. (Client must make seperate payments for services provided to each Outfitter).
Units 17,20 & 21
Our hunting areas are in the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness, the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness, and the Chamberlain Basin. They are protected wilderness areas located in Idaho. At 2.3 million acres it is the largest contiguous area of protected wilderness in the continental United States. Together with the adjacent Gospel Hump Wilderness and surrounding unprotected roadless Forest Service land, it is the core of a 3.3 million acre roadless area.

Most of our hunters are satisfied, repeat customers, and they're our best advertisement. Feel free to call our references and let them tell you what our services are like.

Our Elk Season begins in September and runs through October. Deer season begins in September and runs through November. We offer September Rifle hunts during the rut. We are allocated a certain amount of tags for September, these hunts fill up fast!

Our October hunts are very promising as well. Many times Elk will still be bugling in early October. If we have snow, it makes the elk move more frequently and are easier to spot. The fires in the last few years have burned many acres creating excellent habitat and creating great hunting opportunities. We find ourselves using spotting scopes more than ever before. This is some of the best spot and stalk hunting in the nation, it is not uncommon to see many trophy class elk/deer during your Hunt.
