Rocky Mountain Elk Hunting in British Columbia
Privately Held Territory • Remote Access • Limited Bookings
In 1989 we had our first elk hunt, and since then we have been having a modest harvest each season – we have opted to harvest quality bulls verse quantity.
“You will not find any other area that produces as many good quality free range elk in BC.”

Hunting Rocky Mountain Elk in British Columbia
During the winters of 1984 and 1985, we undertook a monumental effort to establish a new elk population in our territory. This undertaking, a feat few elk hunting outfitters could even attempt, involved transplanting 150 elk over 1,200 miles by truck and 170 miles by air into Scoop Lake. This historic transplant, a testament to our long-term commitment, has resulted in a flourishing herd and a truly unique opportunity for an elk hunt in British Columbia. We have since harvested bulls in the 390 class, with our average elk scoring over 300 Boone and Crocket.
If you are willing to turn down good bulls, your chances are excellent to see a bull in the 330 class or better. Our season runs from September 5th-15th. These guided elk hunts are often conducted on foot from a cabin or, to get in on the bigger bulls, a spike tent camp.

The Elk Hunt.
Our elk hunting trips are on foot, often leaving the cabin before dawn. The guides are experts at bugling, and you generally find yourself in close proximity to your bull before you see him. Imagine a 350 class bull ripping the brush apart and bugling in your face, an unforgettable adrenaline rush.
Hunters need to be in fairly good shape as we do quite a bit of hiking. We enjoy a very high success rate on exceptional quality free-range elk; 90 percent of our elk score over 300 Boone and Crocket. You will not find another area that produces as many good quality free-range elk for a fair chase elk hunt in British Columbia.
