These guided big game hunts take place in permanent alpine camps. With camps located at every wildlife hotspot, we can select the perfect location that will give you the best opportunity for an amazing experience. Base camps are comfortable and equipped with heated tent cabins, log cabins, sleeping pads, and outhouses.
Trip is done by horseback, with calm and stable Cayuse mountain horses, or by foot. During your camp-based trip you will have an experienced guide to give you the best hunting opportunities.
If you are looking for a more adventurous experience, request a spike camp wilderness hunt. Trek through the wilderness with just the essentials, while reducing travel time and placing you in a unique position to spot wildlife from camp.
A customized trip, based at a comfortable lodge, these conservation hunts include home-cooked meals and a variety of styles to suit your interests and abilities. Guided trip is by a combination of 4×4, foot, horseback and/or snowmobile, depending on the species and time of year.
The lodge accommodates up to 10 people. If members of your group are interested, they can enjoy guided fishing, horseback riding, wildlife viewing, hiking, and swimming at nearby lakes. Winter activities include cross-county skiing, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, and winter horseback riding. Check out our Family Hunts page for more information.
Included Lodge Amenities: private rooms, private bathrooms, hot showers, washer and dryer, wireless internet phone (limited), library, fireplace.
Hearty, wholesome food forms the foundation of our homemade dishes. Enjoy three square meals a day, with a menu that includes salmon, roast beef, ham, barbeque ribs, chicken, salads, and our range of desserts.
When planning your conservation hunt with BCTMO Conservation Club, you want to know what to bring, where you’ll be staying and what to expect. Below you’ll find our frequently asked questions to help you prepare for your trip. If we don’t answer your question here, contact us.
In order to get the most out of your hunt experience, you need to be prepared. We take care of all the necessary supplies, camping gear, and logistical equipment, but you must provide your own personal gear.
Rain gear and waterproof footwear is essential. During our hunt trips we travel to elevations of up to 9,500 feet (2,900 metres), making snow, rain, and wind possible, so pack for all weather conditions.
Spring and fall temperatures vary from 70 degrees Fahrenheit (21 degrees Celsius) during the day, to below freezing. Late fall and winter clients for moose, sheep, and cougar hunts need to be prepared for extreme winter temperatures.
To book a hunt trip, we need to discuss all of the variables, including details like age, experience, interests, and abilities. We then discuss trip types and dates. When you’re ready to confirm a date, we’ll send you a complete detailed agreement. A 50 percent deposit secures your spot.

Because we are located in a favorable rain shadow, we typically have sunny, dry days during the summer. However, the wilderness is unpredictable and you need to be prepared. Spring and fall temperatures vary from 70 degrees Fahrenheit (21 degrees Celsius) during the day, to below freezing at night. Late fall and winter clients for moose, sheep, and cougar hunts need to be prepared for winter temperatures.
If you require taxidermy service with our conservation hunts, we can transport your trophy to a quality, local taxidermist and arrange for your trophy to be shipped to you after it’s completed. Shipping and services provided by the taxidermist involve fees and may cause delays in receipt of your trophy.
Taking game out of Canada to the US is generally not a problem, provided you have the right paperwork. We complete the necessary forms, but some species require a CITES permit that must be obtained from a government office during weekdays. Others may require an inspection permit, and we’ll assist you in obtaining this. Taking hides to Europe requires a little more paperwork and time.
You receive a thorough guest agreement when you book a trip to ensure that both you and BCTMO Conservation Club are prepared for your trip. The agreement includes trip details, your abilities, what to bring, waiver and release of claims, pick-up and drop-off details, including accommodation we recommend before and after your hunt, as well as general information on topics such as weather and cancellations.
Before travelling to Canada, review the Canadian Firearm Import Permits at: canadianfirearms.com. Handguns, automatics, and rifles with less than 18 inch barrels are prohibited.
You’re responsible for clearing customs, both as you enter and exit Canada, so we recommend that you contact customs regarding regulations on the locking of gun cases. We also suggest you contact your Canadian Consulate to find out the proper identification (which varies with nationality) required while visiting Canada.
Rifles
Bringing rifles into Canada isn’t a problem. Handguns, automatics, and rifles with less than 18 inch barrels are prohibited. We recommend large, slow caliber rifles for hunts. Most importantly, bring what you’re used to.
For deer, goat, and sheep, we recommend rifles with MINIMUM 1,600 feet/pounds of energy at 300 yards with MINIMUM 165 grain bullet.
For bear and moose, we recommend rifles with MINIMUM 2,000 feet/pounds energy at 300 yards with MINIMUM 200 grain bullet.
NOTE: For late fall and winter trips, rifles must be de-greased to prevent lock up.
Shotguns
Like any firearm, we recommend wing shooters bring the shotgun they’re used to firing. A shotgun using 12 or 16 gauge double zero buckshot is sufficient for hunting upland birds and waterfowl. A long barrel shotgun, with full choke, is best for geese.
About Bow and Arrow
If you seek an ultimate hunt, bring your compound or crossover bow for a truly traditional hunt up to 100 yards. Our guides are also familiar with shooting game with cross and compound bow
