Caribou

Hunt CU352

CENTRAL CANADIAN
BARREN GROUND CARIBOU
$7995 FROM THOMPSON FALLS

2013 proved to be another successful year with everyone taking their first bull and 96% taking a second bull, exception was a few bowhunters.  The Northwest Territories has closed all their central Canadian barren ground caribou hunting to non-residents, so the only place you can still hunt this specie is Nunavut or northern Manitoba. Here you can hunt the Qamairjuaq herd and as of the latest census it has over 450,000 animals. Manitoba only has 500 licenses per year for both residents and non-residents, so this herd is not pressured.  Past years this outfitter has been at or near 100% success on 2 bulls. In 2012, 40 hunters took 37 bulls, including a couple bowhunters. The area is conducive to bowhunt due to the cover and brush. Best bull gross scored 390 Boone and Crockett and the average bull grossed 335.  7 days, 6 hunting, is $7,995 guided 2x1 or add $500 to be guided 1x1. This includes 2 caribou, fishing, wolf and ptarmigan hunting. Hunters must purchase their caribou tags at $460 each, $32 fishing license and $150 bird license if you want to hunt ptarmigan plus .0425% tax.  He has a main lodge that all hunters are flown into from Thompson Falls and this charter is included in the price. From there you will be flown to one of 2 main camps that include electricity, wood heat, shower house, satellite phone and satellite internet. Camps are located on the Nunavut/Manitoba border.

Hunt dates are September 6 to 13, 13 to 20 and 20 to 27. Hunters fly from Winnipeg to Thompson Falls at about $600 roundtrip or you can rent a car and drive, then overnight. You are picked up early the next day and the hunt price includes all flying from Thompson Falls. Hunt CU352.
