2015 Moose hunt with Steamboat Mnt Outfitters

[BCHunterTV]

I had an amazing time with www.steamboatmountainoutfitters.ca (http://www.steamboatmountainoutfitters.ca/) , good guys...great food, accommodations and the adventure on horseback was amazing! I went into this trip a little nervous with all the stories of sore knees and butt from riding, thankfully the guys mix it up on the trail with riding and walking to help loosen up things. I ended up never having any issues!

The ride in was beautiful and relaxing, weather was cold and snowy on the way in and hot on the way out.



Unfortunately we came home with no Moose, but like any hunt nothing is 100%. We did see two nice non legal Bulls, three Grizzlies, Cow Elk and had a hair raising experience by accidentally walking in on a Grizzly Kill.


Steamboat Mnt Outfitters offers BC Residents a service i highly suggest one should try, im already planning to return next year. This time earlier in the season and possibly with my daughter as the shooter

Dream hunt for sure!

defiantly!

if your going to plan a trip i could lend some advice on what to pack and gear to have

[guest]

Very surprised you didn't get your big bull there. Some great moose in that area. But that's hunting. Having been into that camp and area a few times its a incredible place. Did you consider hunting Bulls around Done creek part way in? . I see not much has changed at the main camp. Did you pound them tops for sheep ......? There's a reason the area is bordered and worked by guide out fits. How did you hold off on the generous amount of elk ........ Short hunt? That's a two day ride loaded to main camp. We had it all in there, sheep elk, Bou and yes moose but never took any big moose because of other critters filling the pack horses. Tooooo big them big Bulls. Great pics, we share duplicates of many of your shots.
Thanks for sharing. Good to see the new operator is still going in there. I'll be back too.

[digger dogger]

Looks like a good time Danny, i'm contemplating a horse hunt in the next couple years.
Hopefully next year a moose getz got on film.
Thanx for posting.

[mark]

Looks like a great hunting experience! Can't win every time?

Very nice! Too bad no moose but what an experience! Curious as to how that rifle is mounted? Looks like it's between you and the pack? Is it easily accessible without removing the pack (I would think so in grizz country no?)?

Edit ... not judging, sorry if it came off that way, just seriously wondering how that rifles mounted.

got to agree there, good to see your safe but having a bad experience in there with g bears two out of three trips ...... I wouldn't get caught standing on that pile with out it in my gun in my hands. Just my three cents

there should be more LEH in this particular area for GBears period. But no the gov caters to its friends.

[BCHunterTV]

the group i was with was ready for the Bear if he was around, my rife came out soon after that picture

As for the Pack, its a Vorn. Ill be offering these in Canada shortly. More info check out their website. http://vorn.no/ and video

We hunted the main camp area, covered all the mnts aside from the tops with the sheep.... we called in 2 Bulls/non legal and seen 6 cow Moose. As for Elk we only seen one Cow.

Our trip was the 23-1,

Ill be joining the guys again next year...this time a little earlier in the season and with my daughter/shooter

[yama49]

Why earlier? i think you were in there for the best time for moose. Looks like some nice country. thx for the pic

[bc_buckshot]

Was this the trip you asked tips for horseback hunting.... How chafed did you get, and hope you didn't fall off lol..... Good looking trip and those are the trips guys dream about. Good on you

[boxhitch]

Looks like a good trip. Saw those rigs along the highway when we drove by on the 6th.
That is a healthy size sub-legal bull for it to be a griz or wolf kill, but natural causes can strike anything.
