What Should I Expect –

Goats live in a serious country so if you think you got what it takes to bring down one of these impressive mountain beasts then bring your best boots! Be prepared to spend each day climbing to high elevations over steep rugged terrain and taking shots in precarious places. We are first-class for Mountain Goat as the goat population in our guiding territories is very strong and plentiful. References we provide will attest to this first-rate hunt. To preserve a healthy population we focus on taking mature billy’s only.

Hunting Methods –

This Mountain Goat hunting is physically demanding, it requires the hunter and guide to hike into the high alpine around 8000 feet. You can expect to be hiking the majority of the day along with lots of glassing to locate a mature Billy to harvest. The hikes can vary from a few hours to all day depending on circumstances. We try to minimize fatigue by putting them in several prime hunting locations. Most hunters know this is a physical hunt but most don’t realize how mentally prepared one must be. Weather plays a huge role in success, the snow changes the Goat’s patterns and makes hiking much more difficult. This can be mentally draining but you have to remember to keep your hopes up and focus on the hunt.

Where will I be staying? In a tent? Depending on the weather you will be staying in one of our many spike camps or in a tent throughout the guiding concession. This keeps you on the mountain and drastically increases success rates, you might stay there for a night or two or the whole hunt, and it depends on many variables and the circumstances.
