Wilderness Pack-in Hunting

If you have never experienced it, there is nothing that compares to a wilderness elk hunt. Those of you that have, know what I am talking about. Cold crisp mornings, the creak of your saddle,  methodical beat of your horses hooves picking their way through the darkness, bull elk bugling in the pre-dawn hours. The musky smell of a rank old bulls bed, day breaking on a distant ridge, sights and sounds of the wilderness waking up before your eyes. Does this sound exciting! Give us the chance to earn your business and let the magic of the Rockies unfold beneath you.

Archery Wilderness Pack-in Hunts

bow hunting for bull elk in coloradoOn this hunt we pack into the wilderness to our base camp, deep into the heart of Elk country. The hunting area consists of deep grassy valleys, stands of dark timber, high ridges, and parks of alpine tundra above timberline. Numerous wallows decorate the many secluded basins. Mornings usually include bugling bulls. Afternoons will find you sitting active wallows or high on a ridge glassing elk. All of our guided hunts are 2 hunters per guide and our camps are never overbooked. Even thoughrick wilderness pack in archery elk hunting our camps are extremely remote they are still well outfitted. We also have spike camps that are set in even more remote areas that seldom see a hunter. We specialize in small camps and high success. Archery wilderness trips are 6 days of hunting with a day of travel at each end to make an 8 day total trip. Wilderness trips are also available Semi-Guided. On a semi-guided trip we provide a fully outfitted camp and food. Camp accommodations are the same as a guided trip, but you will be hunting without a guide. Do take into consideration guided hunters have a much higher success rate. Having a guide that knows the country and the game by your side is invaluable.

Wilderness Pack-in Timberline Mule Deer Hunting

colorado timberline mule deer huntingFor this hunt we pack deep into the Uncompahgre Wilderness and hunt these Monster Mule Deer above timberline and beyond. Each summer these big boys call this area home. For several years we have only hunted elk in these drainages, and left the deer undisturbed. After years of scouting and drooling over these bucks we have opened the first two weeks of archery season to hunt these trophies. There has not been trophy potential like this for 30 years. This is the most action packed hunt available today.

WARNING!!!
This hunt is not for everyone.

These mule deer are living in extreme altitudes and tremendously tough country. If you are up to the challenge the game is there for the taking.

Muzzleloader Wilderness Pack-in Elk Hunting

colorado muzzleloader bull elkAll of our muzzleloader wilderness pack-in hunts are fully guided. There is no better way to experience a black powder hunt than by horseback far away from everything in the wilderness. Hunt like pilgrims and pioneers did when the muzzleloader reigned supreme. Black powder seasons are in Mid-September while the elk are in prime rut. This is unquestionably one of those hunts where you can let several bulls go before squeezing the trigger. Trophy potential is unlimited. As with all of our guided hunts there is a 2 hunter per 1 guide ratio, and you are provided with a well outfitted camp and some fine home cooked meals. Our wilderness guided hunts take place in a limited license unit so the black muzzleloader bull elk hunting 66powder tags are drawn in a separate drawing from the state wide licenses. This makes the tags even harder to get. However, these limited units have the best elk hunting in Colorado.  Right now it takes a minimum of 10 preference points to draw. Black powder hunts are 6 full days of hunting with a day for travel each end of the hunt for a 8 day trip.

Rifle Guided Wilderness Pack-in Hunting

Duane Wilderness pack-in rifle bull elkThis is the ultimate in elk hunting. The way elk should be hunted! No fences to bind you or the elk,  just miles of seemingly endless elk habitat. There is no greater hunting accomplishment than having harvested a wilderness bull elk. Pack-in elk hunts are our specialty. We raise and train most all of our stock for the rigors of this type of hunt. All of our equipment is top notch and has been field tested, tried and true in the wilderness. Having outfitted in these same areas for over 20 years we have become very accustomed to the patterns of this particular herd.  Oftentimes we know how they are going to react before they do. Action Adventures is a full time outfitter and elk hunting is what we do best.

elk hunting outfitterOur guided camps are in a Limited Draw Unit that takes several years to draw a tag. This works out well because this popular hunt books up several years in advance. If you are looking for a truly exceptional Colorado Rifle Hunt planning ahead and getting a tag in a limited unit is well worth the wait.

You will be provided with a well outfitted camp, two home cooked meals, and a sack lunch each day. 1 knowledgeable guide per two hunters will assist you on your adventure. This trip is 5 days of hunting and 1 day of travel at each end for a total of 7 days. As with all of our trips nothing is spared to ensure your complete satisfaction.
