Description:
|
This is an authentic back county Colorado Elk Hunt. Federal Law prohibits motorized vehicles in this Colorado elk hunting roadless area composed of 150,000 rugged acres.
All supplies and gear must be packed into the Colorado elk hunting base and spike camps by horse stock. This is not a lodge style hunt where there is electricity and hot showers. Base camp is set up to be comfortable and warm. Spike camps are more of a primitive style being located further out into the Colorado Elk hunting backcountry.
It is a unique experience for the hunter who is prepared to be in the very best physical condition to tackle these mountains to hunt elk at elevations of 10,500 feet.
Riding horses are available for support if and when necessary. Otherwise, all hunting is done on foot. Health and weight restrictions apply for this type of hunt.
We believe in quality and not quantity. We do not have multiple camps nor drop camps in order to preserve our Colorado elk hunting territory. We concentrate our efforts exclusively to guided hunters where one guide is provided for two hunters. The number of hunters in camp is strictly limited to SIX.
Our Colorado Elk Hunting Area, unit 74 (near Durango, Colorado in Southwest Colorado), has one of the healthiest elk herds in Colorado. The resident elk herd continues to grow because other elk from outlying regions migrate here due to the excellent feeding opportunities, spring calving grounds and habitat cover.
Spike camps are used to get further out into the elk hunting territory. Can you rough it for a few nights? In our eyes, this is what Colorado Elk Hunting is all about.
We do not offer any guarantees that you will harvest an elk. Our historical harvest ratio has been 65%. This does not include missed shots, opportunities for shots or passes on smaller bulls. We promise that we will give you 110% effort to locate elk.
There is long established history of hunting tradition in this outfitting and guiding service. Since 1876, the Turners, (who originally starting this hunting business), have been hunting elk in Durango, Colorado for five generations. The Turners have since transferred and sold the outfitting business to another local family, which have another five generations of hunting and ranching history in Southwest Colorado. This would be the McKee family. The Turners continue to work, assist and guide for the McKee’s in this Colorado Elk hunting and guiding business.
Plenty of references and testimonials from past hunters can be provided. To obtain these references, you must call us. In order to protect the privacy of our clients we will not send out any reference information by e-mail.
E-mail us to check space availability for each of our Colorado Elk Hunts.
If you want more details, read further into this website. Sorry, we do not provide glossy brochures in order to keep the cost of our hunts down.
Please call us!! We encourage phone calls so that you can get a very good feel if this type of a Colorado elk hunt is what you really want. We can cover a lot of details in fifteen minutes that you cannot get from a printed brochure.
Once you call and speak to us, if you are still interested, we can send you a DVD of some of our Colorado Elk hunts here in Southwest Colorado (Durango, Colorado).
