Reviewer Comments: Lyle's bear operation covers two very large area allocations about 100 miles (not Kilometers) east of High Level, Alberta. Lyle is a top bear man, who knows as much if not more than most, about bears. Lyle is one of the few who can claim a 100% success rate of better. Usually he runs 150% to 200%. I just completed a hunt with Lyle the week of May 7 - 14, 2006, and I took one nice bear, and one exceptional bear, both with a bow. The other hunter in camp shot one bear with a rifle, and missed a huge another HUGE bear (7 1/2 to 8 foot based on the size of pads and actual sighting) at 30 yards. Had this bear been taken, the hunt for this week would have been at 200%. Although I didn't see any bears until the second half of the week, ALL THE BAITS WERE VERY ACTIVE. The other hunter in camp saw bear starting his 1st full night of hunting. The camp is your basic wall tent bear camp. A portable shower was set up to help keep the grime off. Water was heated in a paid for a hot shower which I used every second day. Even the Cree Indian guide in camp, Graham, used it and found it good. The food was camp food: bacon, eggs, potatoes, sausage, toast, etc. If you want a modern lodge, this hunt probably won't work for you. BUT, if you want the chance or opportunity for an above average or exceptional bear, then come hunt with Lyle.

Yukon Territory Hunting Information
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.
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.
New Mexico Hunting Information
New Mexico is one of the top destinations for trophy Elk and Antelope hunting. Draw odds can be tough depending on the unit but landowner tags are also available for those who don't draw. Mule Deer are plentiful but generally of average size. Only a couple of units and reservations consistently produce big muleys.
