DESCRIPTION:

This outfitter has been in operation since 2005. They have offered professionally guided big game hunting adventures in Alberta for well over 15 years, and their hunts take place in the heart of Canada’s remote Northern Rocky Mountains Park, and other incredible hunting areas spread across Alberta. No matter where they are hunting, their philosophy is simple and unbending. They use proper management of their hunting concessions by targeting mature game for harvest; leaving their wildlife populations healthy and stable for the following years to come.

Alberta dominates the record books when it comes to Cougars and there is no better place to go if a giant Tom is on your wish list. The current cougar population is estimated to be between 2,500 and 3,000 animals, and the province only allows 26 non-resident hunters per year ensuring high quality hunting.

This outfitter's cougar hunts take place starting in January and run through to the end of March. They only take 4 cougar clients per year, 2 per cougar management area (CMA), and they have the exclusive hunting rights to these areas for non-resident hunters. Their hunting area is in the Southwestern part of Alberta along the Montana and British Columbia borders. The cats in this area feed primarily on deer, rocky mountain elk, and bighorn sheep. Since they have such a healthy prey animal population, they have a healthy cougar population.

All of their hunts are done with hounds, and they have two different guides that are both world-class hounds-men, and each one runs the hunts in their specific CMA. These guides love hunting cats and will do everything in their power to find you the trophy you’re looking for. You and your guide will get up first thing every morning and search the area for fresh lion tracks. This may be done in a pickup truck or on a snowmobile depending on the location and the weather conditions. If you are able to locate a trophy-sized track, the hounds will be released and the hunt will be on!

Please note that these hunts are more physically demanding than most guys expect, so please be ready to hike!

Since the shooting distance will be short-range, they prefer you to use one of their guns so that you can avoid the hassles of traveling across the border with a firearm.

Please also note that these hunts are very weather dependent, and they will reschedule your hunt dates if it appears the weather will not be optimal during your scheduled time.

The outfitter encourages everyone to book earlier in the season so that in the event that they must reschedule your hunt dates, they will have plenty of alternative options. There is no extra cost for this as it is part of their service to ensure you get the trophy cat your looking for.
