ABOUT OUTFITTER:
This HFA-Endorsed Outfitter operates in New Mexico along the borders of one of the state's famed Indian reservations, which is some of the best elk ground in the state. Elk are the focus. Every hunt is guided one hunter to one guide, which means undivided attention and a plan built around a single hunter rather than shared across a group. The guides are the operation's real strength. They know this country and where the elk tend to spend their time, and that familiarity is difficult to build quickly or fake. The outfitter has been consistent about doing everything within their control to give each client the best hunt possible, and that shows in how the hunts are run.

HUNT DETAILS:
This country produces bulls consistently in the two hundred eighty to three hundred twenty class, and the terrain is a large part of why. Elevations run from six thousand feet up to eleven thousand, with cover changing as the ground rises, from thick pinon juniper and open meadows in the lower elevations to tall pine and aspen up high. Elk use all of it, and guides know where they hold at each level. Muzzleloader hunters get the best of both worlds, with the advantage of distance and still some bugling action to work with. Those hunts combine spot and stalk with calling bulls in close, and they remain challenging despite the added range. Rifle hunters find bulls still holding with cows but far less vocal, which makes this the hunt for anyone who wants to test longer shooting. Spot and stalk is the method on most rifle hunts. Every hunt is guided one on one.

ACCOMMODATIONS:
Lodging is a comfortable mountain home with a king master suite and multiple bunk rooms, which works for a solo hunter or a group. Fresh linens and towels are provided, and there are laundry facilities for guest use. The outfitter prepares hearty meals so nobody has to think about cooking, though the house also has a fully equipped kitchen with utensils, a coffee pot and K-cup machine, and a propane grill with propane supplied for anyone who would rather cook for themselves. After dinner there is a private hot tub and a wood-burning fireplace, both of which do more for sore legs than hunters expect.

LICENSE INFORMATION:
There are two ways that you can get an elk tag to hunt with this outfitter. One is through the draw system where non-residents are guaranteed a percentage of the elk tags available if you apply with an outfitter, and our License Application Service can handle this process for you to ensure that you’re applied for the proper unit, weapon, and with the correct outfitter. The other way is to purchase a guaranteed landowner tag which the outfitter does have available, and this will guarantee you an elk tag.
