FAQs

Do I need to draw tags in order to book a trip?

No sir!  All of the hunts we offer grant you access to our Outfitter Allocated tags.  Simply book a trip with us, and not only will you be guaranteed tags, we will even handle purchasing them for you so you have nothing to worry about.

We are located in Central Idaho’s remote Frank Church Wilderness area.  As remote as someone can truly get in the lower 48, we are hours from the nearest paved road in the heart of the largest wilderness complex in America.  We charter flights for all our guests from the nearest town of McCall, Idaho typically, but we can also arrange for flights from Boise by request.

There are many places to hunt that are far easier than the Frank.  This is some of the steepest country imaginable and not for the faint of heart.  While some of our hunts like Late Season Mule Deer are far more demanding than our Baited Bear Hunts, be prepared to push yourself to new limits.  Our hunts are not for everyone, but if serious adventure is something you desire there are few places as wild left in the world.

Most of our hunts are intentionally limited to 3 hunters in camp at a time for the best experience.  The only exception would be for groups of 4 that book together or spot & stalk bear and late season mule deer which are limited to 2 hunters.

Contact us via the Book Now page or give us a call (208) 921-7749 and we can chat more about availability and if a trip with us is a good fit for you.  When you are confident in securing a booking we will email over our ‘Welcome Packet’ that includes an Outfitter Agreement that outlines exactly what you will be paying and what you will receive in return, payment due dates and trip dates, as well as detailed packing lists, travel info, and all necessary forms.  You will also receive via email ACH invoices to make all your payments as simple as possible. Leave the details to us, we take pride in making the process as seamless as possible.
