Hunt #1 – General License Area
This is a classic wilderness elk hunt in western Wyoming, using horses and mules to access three different camps. Depending on the camp, the ride in can range from two hours up to seven hours — a true backcountry experience.
This area holds strong numbers of resident elk and also serves as a key migratory route later in the fall season, giving hunters great opportunity throughout the hunt.
In camp, you’ll stay in large canvas wall tents equipped with wood stoves to keep you warm and comfortable. Our outstanding camp staff will keep you well-fed with hearty, stick-to-your-ribs meals, while our experienced guides work hard to give you an exceptional hunting experience from start to finish.
Hunt #2 – General License Area
This elk hunt is based out of the comfortable Smith Lodge and takes place on private leases in Northeast Wyoming. You’ll access the hunting country by pickup trucks and side-by-side UTV/ATVs, making it a less physically demanding hunt—though some hiking is still required to reach the best spots.
These private leases consistently hold strong numbers of resident elk, offering great opportunities throughout the season. After the hunt, relax in a cozy bed and enjoy hearty, home-cooked meals back at the lodge.
Our outstanding guides know this area inside and out and will work hard to deliver an exceptional hunting adventure.
Hunt #3 – Limited Quota Area
This elk hunt takes place in a limited quota area that typically requires 13 or more elk preference points to draw. It’s a true wilderness hunt in a large, rugged region known for holding tremendous numbers of elk.
While the hunt itself is conducted on horseback, with mules and plenty of hiking on foot, the well-staffed wall-tent camp is conveniently accessible by vehicle. You’ll still enjoy all the classic wilderness elements—big country, remote settings, and nights spent in sturdy wall tents equipped for comfort.
Our experienced guides know this area extremely well and are dedicated to giving you an outstanding hunting experience from start to finish.
