Black Bear Hunt!
The Best Bear Hunt with Hounds period!! Chris and his Brother Cody are Top Notch and his guides know their job very well. I had a blast and learned a lot. Korell Outfitters works hard to maintain there 100% kill record for BIG boar Bears! Saw tons of bears. A lot of Color Phased Bears as well! Can not wait to book another Bear hunt with them! Lodge and Food is Top Notch as well. If you call them and ask why they the best you'll understand why I went with them. Family own and ran! They treat you like a person and part of their family why you are in Camp at the Lodge! Best Hounds in the Country hands down!

Reviewer Comments: Me and my friend each harvested mature cat's the same day on the second day of the hunt, out of the same tree in heavy snow. There was four mature cat's, three in one tree, one in the next tree. absolutely amazing, wouldn't trade this hunt for the world. On the fourth day I harvested a big mature tom bobcat off a mule deer kill, totally amazing. The hunt was demanding, incredible, and simply breath taking. If you don't believe it I have it all on video.

Reviewer Comments: Korell Outfitters is an outstanding outfitter. The knowledge of the country and the movement of the elk was unbelievable. This outfitter and guide did an outstanding job getting me into elk. Accomendations and meals are excellent. Went last year and my hunting partner and I each missed bulls. No persons fault other than mine. The outfitter and guides got us into bulls every day, but one. This year we were into 30 plus bulls. Bulls were bugling, which created extra excitement. Chris and Cody Korell are truly professionals at what they do. You arrive as clients and leave as valued friends. If you are looking for a an excellent consultant, look to Wade Derby at Crosshair Consulting. Wade will not book a hunt unless he or one of his associates has personally gone on that hunt to check things out. If it does not make the cut it does not get listed as a bookable hunt.

Reviewer Comments: Guide physically threatened my buddy with physical violence. I don't mind not seeing game but will not tolerate poor treatment. 20+ years hunting experience, many guided hunts throughout North America. This guide and help should have been cast on "Broke Back Mountain." Idaho is an awesome state, in my opinion, these clowns are the epitomy of a shitty outfit. Beware

Reviewer Comments: My freind and I went on a 6 day 1x1 cougar hunt. My freind did not get to see one cat. He never cut a track. I cut one track which was a female which the guide pressured me to shoot. The outfitters younger brother was a hot headed young kid who tried to provoke a fight like the the cowboys from the old west did. He ruined our hunt due to the fact we were in a remote camp with some hot head kid packing a S&W revolver. Book elsewhere.

Reviewer Comments: Chris has outstanding Cougar and Bear hunting.Plus he offers Elk and Deer camps. I took a large Trophy Tom on the last day after treeing three other cats. Chris gives 100% at all times. His hunts are for male cats only, he won't let you take an immature animal. He has had 100% success for three years running.

The Yukon Territory is a legendary hunting destination. Hunters from all over the world travel to the Yukon for wilderness adventure hunting at its finest. This rugged, remote and beautiful province is nearly untouched by man. It is similar in size to the state of California but with a population of only about 30,000 residents. The Yukon is a vast, pristine wilderness that holds a tremendous variety of trophy game species. You should be in excellent physical condition to maximize your success and to enjoy the Yukon experience.

British Columbia is an excellent hunting destination that offers a wide variety of game species. Vast wilderness areas and pristine coastlines provide world class adventure hunting for those seeking that trip of a lifetime. BC is arguably best known for big coastal black bears, Canada moose, grizzly bear, mountain lion, Dall sheep and Stone sheep. Hunters can book a hunt with an outfitter and avoid the license drawing process common in most U.S. states.
Oregon Hunting Information
Oregon is not known to be a trophy big game producing state. That said they do have good quantities of animals such as Elk.
