His dogs do excellent on bare ground, given any reasonable set of conditions. In snow they are of course superb. His dogs do equally well on bobcat and black bear. He hunts some gorgeous and scenic areas in southern Utah and Northern Arizona. 

He has experienced guides and his horses are normally well mannered and well trained. He is a registered quarter horse breeder, so you can understand that this guy is really into his animals; and his expertise with them shows.

We have been using this outfit for a number of years, and over that time his success has hovered around the 95% plus bracket, about as good as can be expected, since bad weather can shut the hunt down. But 90% plus-- is a pretty darn good average for wild lions in rough terrain. And oh what views you will be treated to! You are hunting near the famed Kaibab in some awesome canyon and mountain country with views that will not quit!

This is a typically a Moose/Grizzly combination hunt, with an option for caribou, black bear or goat.   Fly into a remote mountain lake where your horses and guide will be waiting.  Hunt from a cabin or the lake, or spike out into the mountains.  This is a fun hunt: nice weather, beautiful country, long forgiving days.  But you need to be in good shape - lots of riding, lots of hiking/climbing.

The frost is on the ground and the moose and caribou are in rut.  We hunt snow covered mountain basins from cabins or spike camps.  This is our most popular hunt: the game is moving, and with horses can you can cover some country.  But you've got to be prepared to ride.  This is rough country, and it's not easy to get around - and that's why the game is there.

These are typically his least 'physical' hunts.  You will hunt along / near the lake, doing as much (or as little) hiking as you want.  The idea is to call the big bulls to you.    Be prepared for a shot at a wolf or black bear.  Grizzly tags may also be available. It still helps to be in shape if you spot a big one on the mountain side!
