While you're up on the mountain we also pursue the elusive Buck Mule Deer. If you're up to it we can even do some high mountain deer hunting while in the area. It's Great Too!!

Your guides are professionals who are completely familiar with the wilderness area and high mountain hunting. This expertise and under-standing is the factor that make our hunting trips a success.

Our season offers archery, black powder and (3) rifle hunts.

Deer Park

[ 5 days, 4 nights ] .......... $3,350.00 Per Person
( 6 people per hunting party )

Our outfitters in the San Juan Mountains have owned and operated one of the best summer and fall outfitting businesses in Southwest Colorado for over 20 years. Where experience counts, they have it and it shows in their quality permitted hunting areas, base and spike camps, excellent homecooking and superb horses.

Base camps are accessible by horse or foot only, thereby limiting the outside pressure. "Home away from home", wall tents with cots, pads and wood burning stoves, cooking and bath tents all make for a very comfortable get away.

Their success with game is high year after year, but the return of the hunter is their greatest success rate. Only a limited number of hunters are taken out each season.This assures each hunter the close personal attention we all search for.

Archery & Muzzel loading are one of their specialties.These early seasons are held in severe country and are physically demanding. The guides are all bow hunters and bugling experts. You can be sure they will use the terrain and the rut to your advantage. If you want some great personal satisfaction, join them this fall for a hunt of a lifetime.
