Fantastic Sheep Hunt
2 of us hunted with Gana River Outfitters for Dall Sheep. Wanted to avoid the resident pressure of AK, so we chose to spend a little more money and go to NWT where there is NO hunting pressure figuring it was a once in a lifetime hunt. Got exactly what we hoped for - saw TONS of sheep each day, anywhere from 6 to 25 RAMS a day. The sheep never ran, just looked at you as they probably never saw a person before. The Outfitter had a self imposed 8.5 year old ram minimum, so we had to pass on numerous rams that were 7 years old, but were pushing 40" in length. (That was frustrating as I finally took mine on day 8 of a 10 day hunt. He may have relaxed his limits by now). Hydroelectric power at their base camp, then you left for the spike camps. Hunted hard each day, long days going for 14 - 16 hours. Took a 10.5 year old ram, buddy took a 13 year old ram. They always had everyone tag out, unless the person couldn't climb. Exceptional people to work with, best hunt I've been on out of about 15 guided hunts.

Alberta Hunting Information
Alberta is a large, diverse province with rolling prairies, farmland, river bottoms, Boreal forests, and large expanses of the northern Rocky Mountains. Many species of big game, waterfowl, upland game and predators inhabit Alberta. Long known for monster whitetails, Alberta also is home to big mule deer, pronghorn antelope, elk, black bear, cougar, Canada moose, and bighorn sheep. In fact, 7 of the 10 largest bighorn sheep in Boone and Crockett record book are from Alberta. In addition to big game, Alberta offers some top notch bird hunting. Serious waterfowlers know about the large flocks of ducks and geese that call Alberta home or migrate through.
Colorado Hunting Information
Colorado is one of the best western states for trophy mule deer hunting and has the largest population of elk in the west.
Manitoba Hunting Information
Manitoba is known as a top destination for avid waterfowl hunters. Huge flocks of ducks and geese can be found from the Arctic coast of Hudson Bay to the prairie potholes on the southern border of this Canadian province. There is no legal requirement for non-resident waterfowl hunters to use a guide, but many are available and a high percentage of non-Canadian hunters utilize them. In addition black bear, Canada moose and whitetails are hunted throughout the province.
