What to Expect
*We have a forest service lease which allows us to set up camp sites and
hunt a large part of the Little Belt Mountain Range in Central Montana.
Our main camp site is located in a wilderness area, which is a roadless
area and no motorized vehicles are allowed. A two hour horseback ride
from the trailhead will get you to the hunters' tents, cook tent, horse
corrals and shower tent. The elevation here is just under 6000 feet.
*We hunt from 5500 to 8000 feet elevation. We saddle horses every morning before
daylight and after eating a hearty breakfast, head out for the day's
hunt. The majority of game we kill are with in 3 miles of the campsite.
We use horses throughout the duration of the hunt because we can cover
more country in a shorter amount of time, making it easier on the
hunter.
*The terrain we hunt consists of open meadows surrounded by thick green
timber. 10,000 acres of the national forest was burned 20 years ago.
This recovering area is a verdant, rich feeding ground for the
resident elk and mule deer herds.
It is not uncommon for our hunters
to fill both their elk and deer tags during the combination hunts. |
