Booking
Information
To insure your hunt
is firmly booked I require a deposit of 50% of the cost of your
hunt. With this deposit please inclose a note that includes
the number of hunters in your group and the species each hunter
wishes to hunt, and the number of non-hunters if any in your
group. All permits are limited so be precise when listing the
species. I will need one complete name, email address, home
address and phone number so I have a contact person for the
group.
If I have not emailed you a hunting contract and a liability
waiver please ask for them. They must be filled in by each member
of your hunting party even if a member is a non hunter. They
are legal documents so they must be filled in correctly or they
will need to be redone. Each must be returned with the required
deposit for a complete booking. Make copies for each member
of your party.
When the deposit, hunting contract and liability waiver are
received I will contact you to confirm your booking and ensure
all details are correct. Always carry a copy of your hunting
contract for proof of your hunt if asked by customs.
Final payment of your hunt will be expected upon arrival and
must be made in guarranteed funds only. Cash, travelers checks
or a bank draft are acceptable. Under no circumstances will
personal checks or money orders be accepted for final payment.
Booking a year or more in advance:
If booking a year in advance a small deposit of $500.00 per
hunter will hold your hunt until the December before your hunt.
At this time the remainder of your deposit must be sent in order
to continue to hold your hunt.

Import
Regulations
Check with your
local authorities for import regulations into your country
and any country you may be travelling through.
Remember - export permits may be required for each country
you leave.
Meat
Left Behind
Clients who do not want their wild game meat or parts of their wild game meat may leave this meat in their hunting camp. Your outfitter will distribute this meat to the needy of the area. The needy thank you.
Hunting
Camp
Our camp consists of heated
cabins as sleeping quarters. Each building has 4 single beds
with mattresses (bring your own sleeping bag), a propane light
and a propane heater, a sink and a bucket of water for washing.
Yes, we do have a camp shower. Our
kitchen, with a cook, supplies a hearty breakfast before our
hunt, and a huge supper when we return at the end of our day.
We hunt all day and do not wish to return to camp, so mid-day
lunches are in the field. Our comfortable hunting camp is
built for hunting purposes. It is not a lodge with fancy fixings.
Terrain
and Hunting Methods
For the most part,
our hunting terrain is flat land. We have a mixed boreal forest
of pine, spruce, aspen, willow, alder and buckbrush. Generally
speaking we leave camp with the vehicles and drive to an active
hunting area. Depending on the species being hunted we my
stay with the pickup but usually we hunt on foot or by quad.
If you harvest your trophy we will prepare it for transport,
and then haul it back to camp for you.
Weather
Who can really answer
this question? The month of May generally offers warm spring
temperatures, ranging from 60 to 70 degrees F. (or 15 to 22
degrees C). During the fall season September should average
50 to 70 degrees F (10 to 22 degrees C). October temperatures
may be 32 degrees to 60 degrees F. (0 to 15 degrees C), and
nights may bring below-freezing temperatures. Early November
could be -15 to +40 degrees F. (-10 to +5 degrees C). If you
have the room bring extra clothing just in case.
