Description
This outfitter will cater to both Archery and Rifle elk hunts. These archery hunts are very action packed. Majority of archery hunters have multiple encounters with multiple bulls each day. we locate a lot of bulls bugling in the dark timber or spot their herds in open parks and aspens. Outfitter will help hunters work to maneuver through the satellite bulls and cows trying to get a shot at the herd bull. (Easier said than done). Rifle hunts are later in the fall when majority of the bulls are done rutting. A lot of the bulls pull back up to higher elevation and bachelor back up. This makes for a fun hunt on horseback when you can spot a lot of bulls from a distance and make plan and execute the stalk. These hunts are high success. Outfitter does majority of traveling on horseback. The horseback adventure is worth the trip alone. Once a target bull is located, depending on where he is and the terrain, hunter will either cut some distance off on horses and then go in on foot to finalize the stalk, or take off on foot from there. The outfitter will assist with all the harvest photos you want. This outfitter takes pride in the way we handle and care for your meat, while quartering and packing it back to camp. This cannot be combined with a deer hunt.

Description
This is a great opportunity to hunt mature bull elk in the wilderness of Wyoming on horseback. The land is rugged and requires endurance for the trip up the mountains. As with any big game hunt, the hunter must be in the best shape possible. The opportunity for elk hunting on public lands has been a part of our American Heritage since the inception of public lands in the early 1900s. This Wyoming elk hunt is an opportunity to see for yourself the Bridger-Teton National Forest in Western Wyoming. Elk hunting areas south of Jackson hole near Daniel, covering unit 90, Unit 92 and Unit 94. While the Wyoming Department of Game and Fish Department manages hunting and fishing opportunities, the public lands of the Bridger-Teton National Forest are the favored hunting grounds of many Americans. When you are archery or rifle hunting, this outfitter will provide the following: pack your game back to your vehicle at camp, meals, 1 full-time guide for up to 2 hunters, unless a 1x1 hunt is booked prior to hunt. Horses for transportation, and uses of all facilities. Hunter will arrive to camp the afternoon of the day prior to your hunt. Hunter will depart from camp the morning after the last day of the elk hunt. This is a 2:1 hunt fully guided 5 day hunt with option to upgrade to a 1:1 hunt. Option for a non-hunter or to add additional species. Bear may be killed on a trophy fee (purely opportunistic) and wolves may be taken without a fee.
