Bowhunting

While most outfitters tolerate bowhunters at thier lodges, we really welcome them. Over the past 10 years we have successfully guided bowhunters for both woodland caribou and moose, with all our regular guides having been  involved with successful archery hunts during that period.   A wise person once said there is no substitute for experience, and our guides certainly rely on the knowledge gained from past experiences with  bowhunting clients to fully benefit future archery hunting clients.  There is much to understand with bowhunting  that is different from other hunting methods.  The open terrain presents some challenges that must be tackled properly in order to afford a bowhunter opportunity to harvest one of our big game animals.    Also, the resident nature of our herds and the remote locations of our facilities, allows us to hunt directly from modern, full-service lodges, with no need for primitive spike or tent camps.    Spotting of animals directly from the lodge is not only possible, but has come to be expected. 

One of the business owners has been largely involved with our bowhunting activities and being a successful  archery big game hunter himself for 6 years, has much more than just basic knowledge about what is required to be successful in this method of hunting our big game.   While this hunting method is quite challenging, it is  achievable, and we feel quite confident in our ability to provide excellent opportunity for a successful hunt. 

While most of our archery hunting has been focused on the woodland caribou, recent increase in populations dictate that we will now be accepting additional moose hunters, which will increase opportunities for bow hunting this magnificent and very challenging big game species.      This will not mean that we will hunt more hunters from our lodges, but allow us to utilize all of our remote facilities for moose hunting.        We are hopeful to be able to continue to offer limited woodland caribou hunting as well, as our one remaining caribou hunting area is expected to provide excellent sightings into the near future.      

We are excited about the increased moose population of our areas and really look forward to finally having enough permits to accommodate more archery hunters.  Caribou Lodge has shown steadily increasing moose numbers and that lodge set up has impressed all past guests.  Rocky Ridge Lodge has continued to offer a superior hunting atmosphere with very consistent hunting action and associated success rates.  Both Rocky Ridge and Caribou lodges offer boating on lakes to assist in spotting for animals, and both have canoe accessed waterways which add a different aspect to hunting techniques, appealing to most who enjoy wilderness canoe travel. Salmon Brook Lodge and The Forks lodge have continued to provide our overall largest trophy moose during most hunting seasons, however both Rocky Ridge and Caribou Lodges have shown increased moose sightings of some good trophy bulls over the past couple of years.

The commitment of our outfitting business to archery woodland caribou hunting has been extensive and we are in the process of doing the same for moose.   Our staff has developed great passion and dedication to bowhunting methods, and we have been successful in  giving our hunters a better opportunity of getting to within stalking range of good quality trophy animals.
