Description

A great opportunity to hunt elk in the high country of Utah. This is a 5 day fully guided general season OTC Elk Hunt. A veteran owned operation who is after making the memories! A world champion elk caller, this outfitter and his guides offer a hunt of lifetime! Hunter has the opportunity to hunt archery, muzzleloader, or rifle. These licenses are over-the-counter and offer a true western hunt experience. Archery hunts are conducted as split hunts, meaning hunters have the option of taking any branch antlered bull on an open bull units or a spike/cow on the Limited Entry units. The open Bull units are quite difficult, and success rates are lower than the spike/cow hunts. Rifle and Muzzleloader are either Open Bull or Spike Only, but cannot be combined into one hunt like Archery can. Utah does not have prehistoric muzzleloader requirements. Clients can expect lots of hiking and elevation gain. Spot and stalk plus calling techniques are used. Outfitter provides a comfortable wall tent camp with cots. Hunter's are responsible for their own food unless they select to have outfitter provided meals for an additional charge. Hunters should be prepared for heavy hiking for this hunt in all seasons as these are physically challenging units.
