Elk

Whether you’re a new raghorn chaser or an experienced wapiti stalker we have got a hunt for you. We hunt in remote areas of the Big Horn Mountains and offer two different base camps, the Diamond Tail Cabins and the Back-country Camp.   These areas hold great elk in both quality and quantity. Rifle, archery, and muzzle-loaders are all welcome, as well as crossbow hunters. Although we have harvested bulls in the 380 class range in recent years, on average, a mature bull will range from a 280 to a 350 class bull. All of the archery hunts will be during prime bugling season. Calling will be the preferred technique during this period. To hunt during the rut is one of the most exhilarating hunts you’ll ever experience. The rifle hunts will combine some calling, spot and stalk, and tracking. All of the guides are well trained in these hunting methods. For those who are willing to be patient and work hard, real trophies are there to be had. We advise applying for preference points on elk and we will assist you with this process.  Elk populations are at an all time high; year after year Wyoming ranks number one in overall elk hunter success.   For some of our clients a guided elk hunt is a once in a lifetime opportunity, for others it's an experience they enjoy every year, either way our commitment to making your hunt the best it can be remains the same.

Area 40 Back Country Tent Camp
Rifle or Archery Hunts 

This is a Back Country Tent Camp where horses are used for riding and packing meat.  This hunt is conducted on National Forest Service land.  Each tent is equipped with wood stoves, cots, foam pads, and lighting.  You'll enjoy home style cooked meals prepared by an experienced mountain camp cook.  Your horses will be cared for and ready to work for you each day. This camp offers all the perks of a truly rugged western experience combined with excellent elk hunting opportunities. The archery season opens September 1st but we usually don't start our hunts until around the middle of the month because the temperatures are still too warm at the beginning and the elk are not in full rut yet.  The rifle season for bulls in this area is October 15th- November 4th. 
40-9 6 day archery hunt-- $7500.00
​40-1 6 day rifle hunt-- $7500.00

Area 41 ​Rifle and Archery Tent Camp Hunts 

Wyoming Elk Hunts: Archery and Rifle Options
Join us for an unforgettable elk hunt in Wyoming's prime Big Horn habitat. Whether you prefer the close-range excitement of archery or the precision of a rifle, we offer options tailored to your hunting style. September is a special time to hunt, coinciding with the rut, where bugling bulls respond to calls and provide an exhilarating challenge.
We offer hunts for the following tags:

41-3: Valid for either rifle or archery during September,          including the peak rut.
41-9: Archery-only tag for September.
41-1: Rifle-only tag from October 15th through November 4th.
Our hunts take place on both public and private land, combining rugged adventure with comfortable accommodations. Stay in framed tents equipped with wood stoves and cozy cots, enjoy hearty homestyle meals in a separate cooking and dining tent, and refresh in a hot shower tent. It’s rustic living with a touch of first class.
Hunting is conducted using 4x4s, UTVs, and on foot. Techniques include spot-and-stalk as well as targeting areas where elk cross between food and water sources. Archers should be comfortable with shots out to 40 yards for the best chance of success, while rifle hunters should be prepared for shots ranging from 200 to 400 yards. We’re happy to discuss equipment, ammunition, and shooting preparations to help ensure you’re ready for the hunt.
Weather and elk behavior dictate each day’s strategy, making every hunt unique. Come prepared to work hard and adapt to varying conditions, which can change dramatically within a single 6-day hunt.
With 20 years of experience guiding in Area 41, one of the most reputable regions in the Big Horns, we take pride in providing the high-quality hunt we advertise. Availability is limited, so contact us today to reserve your spot and prepare for an adventure of a lifetime.

  • 41-1 (Rifle Only): $7,500
