Rifle season starts the last week of October and runs through the end of November. The bulls start leaving the cows this time of year and it is not uncommon to see 5-10 bulls in a bachelor herd. The weather can range from 60 above to 20 below. Our hunters stay warm and comfortable in their Accommodations and our camp cook makes sure there's plenty of food.

Opening day will find you at the top of the mountain well before daylight. Average shots range between 100 - 300 yards. Snow could fall anytime during rifle season which makes it easier to track movement of the Deer and Elk. Mule Deer bucks come into full rut from the middle to the end of November. We place a 4 point (Western Count) or better restriction on the Mule Deer bucks we harvest. This has proven very successful as the number of trophy bucks is increasing each year.

Things to Bring with you:
