Lion Hunts...

Anyone who has ever hunted Colorado knows that southwest Colorado has some of the best genetics for big game hunting, especially in Unit 61. With the way the point system works now your unit 61 hunt has turned in a once and a lifetime opportunity. We are a second generation, family run outfitting business specializing in Unit 61 exclusively.

The best time of the year to hunt lions is December, January and early February. Lion hunting is a fun and exciting hunt. Hunts are conducted using 4 x 4’s, snowmobiles, and hiking. It is important to note that lion hunts are very dependent on having snow on the ground in order to identify tracks.

Once a track is found, the hounds are off and the excitement builds. We will do our best to tree a quality lion and then it is your decision whether you take it or not.

You have a lot of options when choosing the right weapon. You can use a bow, rifle, pistol, or muzzleloader.If we are unable to tree you a legal lion, you will be welcomed back at 1/2 the outfitter fee.

Licenses over the counter are based on a quota system for the area. If the quota is full, no more licenses can be filled.

About Your Hunt...

Our earlier hunts take place on the Uncompagre Plateau. This camp is a temporary camp set up on the national forest land at approximately 9000ft in elevation. As the weather cools off and the animals start to migrate down towards their winter grounds, we move down with them onto private property where we have several cabins to run our operation.

Although this is a limited draw area with numerous animals in the area, it is still a hunt with no guarantees. Our family and guides will give you 110% everyday. We tailor the hunt to your own physical ability using the “spot and stalk” method of hunting. We try to avoid roads and hunt in the more remote areas of the unit utilizing horses to help pack the animal out after a successful hunt.

Base price includes 5 day hunt, lodging and meals included.
