Moose Hunts

GENERAL INFORMATION

All moose hunts are a fun filled seven (7) day hunt in the wilderness area of the famous Hoback Canyon region. You will call our Bear Creek Camp home for the week at approximately 8000 ft. elevation. Our transition camp at the trail head is located approximately 25 miles south of Jackson Hole Wyoming.

We typically will begin your adventure at the transition camp near the trail head. At this location you will receive an orientation on riding our horses and given an idea of what to expect as we ride into the Bear Creek Camp. All of your gear will be placed on pack horses and we will begin an approximately one hour horse ride through some of the most beautiful country Wyoming has to offer. Once we arrive in camp you will meet the guides and staff and be shown your wall tent home for the week. Each tent is heated in the mornings to make our guest comfortable during colder weather. You will also be shown our cook tent, where you will be fed three wonderful meals a day, prepared by our western camp cook.

All hunts are fair chase conducted on public lands in which we are permitted to operate guiding and outfitting services on.

Our moose hunting area (Area 21) contains thousands of acres of high country alpine land where there are good numbers of moose.

We have one guide for every moose hunter and reach the high mountain meadows and pine timber where we hunt riding horses that are accustom to riding mountain trails.

We use the spot and stalk method of hunting big bulls by finding them with powerful spotting scopes from high vantage points, then formulating a game plan for a stalk. Most shots will be less than 100 yards for moose. We recommend a .30 caliber rifle or larger to harvest a moose.

You will be served a brown bag style lunch during the day while hunting and a wonderful hot meal for breakfast and dinner each day at our comfortable and cozy western style camp. Our cooks like to get creative in the woods so you never know what they might dream up to tempt your taste buds. And of course…we always keep the coffee hot!

All of our guides are fun to hunt with and are very knowledgeable of the hunt area.

Our guides will field-dress; cape and care for your animal after harvest and deliver you're animal to a local meat processor and taxidermist. However, you must make arrangements with each business for deposits they may require and shipping details. Our website has information about local taxidermists and meat processors that you can make pre-hunting arrangements with.

Our rifle hunts begin September 1st and run through October 30th.

Moose rut later in the season and larger numbers can typically be seen starting around October 10th. However early season archery hunting of moose can make for a wonderful and exciting hunt.

We only take 5-6 hunters per week so book early for the best selection in hunting times. All moose hunts are one guide per hunter.
