Mountain Goat

More Details

Mountain Goat

The mountain goat (Oreamnos americanus) is found high up in the peaks, looking down on the sheep! Goats are some of the toughest animals in North America; they can soak up lead like a grizzly bear and have been seen running wolves off of cliffs- truly a magnificent animal.

90% of the global population of mountain goats resides here in British Columbia. Our territory is productive, not just in the number of goats, but also in horn grown! We average 9"-10" trophy quality and have goats as young as 5 reaching B&C quality.

We have an extensive network of trails, cabins, and fly-in lakes that we will use to access goat country. Backpack or horseback, rifle or archery, we will be able to give you an opportunity at a mountain goat!

Best Season

Early season: Aug 1-Sept15

Bulls are generally found up high in sub-alpine habitats where high quality feed is abundant, and winds reduce the effects of bug . Bulls usually stay in a small area, unless they are disturbed by people or predators. Bull moose usually stay in full velvet until the beginning of September. Often bulls group up together in the early season, and it can be a great time to take multiple bulls on a 2:1 hunt!

Late season: Sept 15- Oct 15

Bulls begin to rub off velvet and begin moving to rutting grounds, where they will find cows. Preliminary fights, and "testing" of other bulls begin. Cows start to show interest in the bulls and hang around the most dominant ones. The most dominant bulls will begin to bring their harem of cows together during this period. Hunting this time will involve a combination of glassing and calling. Early in this season will attempt to glass bulls that are moving into the rutting grounds. We may have success using cow calls to bring in mature bulls that are actively searching for a harem.

Moose Hunting in Northern British Columbia, Western Canada

Enjoy a 10-day hunt for trophy bull moose in northern BC! We have amazing genetics and very large moose – 45-55” on average, with some bulls breaking the 60” mark.
Our moose specific hunts will start in mid-September, when the rut begins and go through to the beginning of November. We transition tactics from calling during the rut, to glassing feeding grounds if hunting in the post-rut timeframe.
Low pressure means that the moose are very susceptible to calling, and you can expect some thrilling, close encounters during the rut!
Moose season opens as early as Aug 15 in some of the territory, and mature velvet bulls will often be glassed up during caribou and mountain goat hunts. We don’t offer any moose specific hunts at that time, but it can be a great addition to your other hunts, on a trophy fee basis.
Hunting will be done from 4x4, horseback, boat, and hiking – depending on which camp you are hunting out of and that accessibility of the moose. We will use everything at our disposal to get you a trophy bull!
