Caribou & Goat Hunting British Columbia

NORTHERN British Columbia Canadian Mountain Goat Hunting

Our goat hunts, like most goat hunts, require a hunter who is in excellent shape, and who is not scared of heights.  It’s pretty simple.  You need to be able to climb to where the goats are, or you will not get one. 

Most of our goat hunts are straight backpack hunts – you fly (float plane) into a remote lake, and hike from there.  The distance you need to hike to ‘goat country’ varies with the hunt you book.  We can arrange to provide a ‘horseback assisted’ goat hunt, which will help you get to the bottom of the goat mountains; however, you still need to be able to climb up the rocks when you get there.  Our goats are not (usually) found in horse friendly terrain.

NORTHERN British Columbia Canadian Mountain caribou Hunting

Our Caribou hunt is a fun, mountain horseback, spot & stalk adventure.  Lots of riding, lots of glassing, and sometimes some pretty serious hiking.  We have good luck on our late August / early September hunts.  It’s a beautiful time to be in the mountains, weather is usually good, and there is lots of game to be seen. 

Our Mountain Caribou are often combined with moose, however we find that the most successful Caribou hunters are the ones who go caribou hunting.  Take a wolf and a black bear tag along, and have a great Caribou hunt! 

British Columbia Caribou & Goat Hunting

Mountain Goat & Mountain Caribou Combo Hunts

Mountain Goats and Mountain Caribou… while they both live in the mountains; they don’t usually live on the same mountain – and so they don’t make a great combination.  We have moose pretty much everywhere – near our goats, and near our caribou – so we run moose/goat and moose/caribou hunts. 

However, to get both a goat and a caribou on the same hunt, you need to be lucky and/or to book a longer hunt – you will need time to move between the caribou and the goat hunting areas.
