Description
September - October
10-Day Hunt | 1x1 Guided
There’s not a lot that’s more exciting than calling in bugling bulls, often very close and personal, a true memory that will stick. By covering multiple slides and calling, you can hunt the September and October months for these mossy-horned giants. Our bulls’ average Boone and Crockett score are around 300 inches and there is always the chance at that true monster.
- Hunts are mostly conducted out of spike camps consisting of cabins and wall tents.
- In the East Kootenays a six-point rule is in effect to allow these bulls to reach maturity
- Hunts are 2x1 or 1x1 Guided
If you would like to bring a non-hunting companion along, there is an additional fee (see Add-Ons).
Base price is for a 2x1 guided 7-day hunt per person.
Add-Ons:
- Make it a 1x1 Guided Hunt
- 10-Day hunts available
- If you would like to bring a non-hunting companion along, there is an additional fee (see Add-Ons).

Rules & Guidelines
How to get to us:
We are located approximately 30 minutes north of Radium and 30 minutes south of Golden. Most of our clients fly to Cranbrook, BC, where they are picked up at the airport by us and taken to the territory (at no extra cost) which is approximately a 2.5 hour drive away. Also some prefer to fly to Kalispel, Montana or Calgary, Alberta and rent a car and drive to Radium where we can meet up with them as well.
What you’ll need to cross the Border:
Coming into Canada is typically not a problem for clients coming to hunt in BC. The Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) recommends that you have proof of your reason for travelling to Canada and to have your passport with you.
This includes:
- Booking contract
- Itinerary
- Deposit/fees paid
- Accommodations/Flights booked
- Form 5589 Non – Resident Firearm Declaration (do not sign the form prior to getting to the border as it must be signed in the presence of a CBSA agent), this can be obtained from GOABC or from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
If you are an American, you’ll also want to fill out US Customs Form 4457 prior to entering Canada. This declares that you have owned your firearms before coming to Canada, and will prevent you having to pay duty on them when you return to the United States.
Additional Information
- Prices do not include royalties, meat processing or tips for guides.
- Royalties can be paid by check at the end of the hunt.
