Hunting has become a very large avocation of many people in our area and I am happy
to be able to offer you the opportunity to join us in this enjoyable outdoor pursuit.
We base our "hunts" from our Meadow Lake Base Camp and run the excursions
during the months of May and June. As you probably know, all members of the Deer
family (Cervidae) shed their antlers anually. In our our area, this includes Mule
and Whitetail Deer, Elk and Moose. Our game populations are in extremely good shape
and our location 3 miles above one of the winter Elk Feed grounds makes our location
ideal for finding those shed antlers each season.
Antlers are gathered each year for many reasons:
- Income derived from selling the antlers at auction, to taxidermists, knife makers
and collectors;
- To be made into decorative lamps, chandeliers, and other items; or
- Simply to be displayed in your home and collected by you.
The Spring months are ideal months to visit our area. Fishing can be extremely good
and can be combined with your antler hunting activities. Your stay will be based
at our Meadow Lake Base Camp. Your stay can be anything from 1 night to all week,
according to your schedule. In addition to antler hunting, you can expect to participate
in the following activities from our base camp:
- Fishing;
- Photography - unsurpassed scenic and wildlife opportunities;
- Horseback riding - we utilize our horses to ride the country in search of discarded
antler;
