Hunt Description

One of our most popular elk hunts, this is an eight-day, Idaho wilderness, rifle elk hunt that takes place in September during the elk rut! Unless you are an bowhunter, you don’t get to hunt elk in September during the rut while the bulls are bugling anymore. It’s also a combo hunt for elk, mule deer, mountain lion and black bear. It just doesn’t get much better than that! Add in a fly-in wilderness experience and you have something special that you will remember the rest of your life. Obviously, this elk hunt fills fast, so booking one to two years in advance is highly recommended to save your spot. Elk tags for this hunt are guaranteed over the counter.

Most bull elk harvested are 5×5 and 6×6 bulls and success on guided elk hunts runs 75% average year to year, opportunity is 95%, drop camp hunts run 25% success on bull elk. Depending on where and how you choose to hunt, your Idaho elk hunting experience could vary from a lodge elk hunt to a complete pack-in elk hunt up to fifteen miles from the trailhead. Elk hunting is by horseback and on foot. Elevations in Idaho can range anywhere from 3500′ to 9500′. Elk camps consist of wall tents, cook tent, shower and delicious meals. Guides are experienced elk hunters and know the areas well.

*Just as a side note, your non-resident Idaho mule deer tag can be used to tag a black bear, mountain lion OR a mule deer.

Ratings & Testimonials

Average Rating For This Hunt

“Great hunt! Over-the-counter September Rifle tags where you have a good chance at a nice 6×6 bull. Where else do you find that? This hunt is a sleeper and will just get harder and harder to book as people find out about it.”

“I couldn’t be happier with my 6 point bull. For my first elk hunting experience, I couldn’t ask for more. I will be back!”
