SELF GUIDED CAMPS: $1250 per hunter (*price does not include $250 per animal charge for packing out killed game)
I have lived here and outfitted hunts in this area for many years. My knowledge of the local terrain, drainages, and elk habits and movement will help you have a successful hunt. We offer several drive-to camp locations which are 4WD accessible. We do not use horses and this is not a pack-in, drop camp hunt. Groups of varying sizes can be accommodated from individual hunters to 4-6 persons in a tent camp or the cabin. Just ask and we'll get something set up for you that will work.
**** Bear Creek Camp: Our Bear Creek Camp is remote and located in an area where vehicle traffic is minimal if at all. Outfitting services on this hunt include getting you into camp where I will brief you on the local hunting terrain and current hunting conditions. I will share my personal knowledge of the area with you and do everything possible to help you have a safe, enjoyable and successful week of hunting. I will supply you with topographical maps and I will show you where to hunt and how to approach each area. Hunters who are prepared physically and who are ready with their equipment and pre-hunt planning are usually successful in finding elk on these hunts. Bear Creek has trout fishing, we've got plenty of elk here, and you just have to get out and go after them!
**** Spring Gulch Camp: Our Spring Gulch Camp is set on private land with walk-out access to BLM and National Forest. There is no public access on either side of the camp and you will find elk often within a 1/2 mile of camp, sometimes closer. As with any elk hunt you will want to be in good shape as the mountain begins at the camp so your daily hunt will begin with a walk up the hill. This area has some real good mule deer too, and there is a brrok with lots of trout on the property. As we do for all our self-guided hunts, I will give you the topo map for this area and review with you places where we historically see elk.
**** Cabin Hunt: Our cabin is also available for self-guided hunts. You can read all about it and see some pictures on the Cabin Hunt page. The cabin is located at the east side of the San Luis Valley with BLM and National Forest land available right out the door. Several good trailheads are within a mile or so of the cabin and we'll get you information and directions on where we historically find the elk. We kill lots of elk, mule deer and antelope right around the cabin each year.
We will be glad to accommodate groups of varying sizes including individual hunters. Camps are limited to 4-6 hunters and smaller groups can be accommodated. If necessary we will match you with another group to get a minimum of 3-4 guys per camp. On these hunts all you need to provide is your license, food, personal gear and the desire to enjoy a great hunting experience. Our camps are fully equipped with the following to ensure an enjoyable hunt:
| Wall Tent or Cabin | Cots | Cook Stove | |
| Lanterns | Propane Fuel | Wood Burning Stove | |
| Firewood | Hot Water Shower |
