Species Hunted: Black Bear

Game Quality: Excellent

Accommodation Quality: Excellent

Camp Condition: Excellent

Food Quality: Super Excellent

Guide Experience: Excellent

Other Personal Experience: Excellent

Overall Impression: Excellent

Recommend: Yes 100% - I am booked to hunt

Reviewer Comments: Very Professonal! 70% of their hunters are repeat clients, which is a very big statement in itself. Camp was full the week I was there with 36 hunters on the first day. All did not hunt all week, but 18 bears were taken and recovered. (3-4 bears taken were in the 350-400 lbs range.) 2 or 3 more were shot and never recovered, and 3 or 4 were shot at and missed. Several hunters had multiple sightings and passed on shot opportunities with hopes for a larger bear. There was no question that the bait sites were active. If everyone that fired at game had properly placed their bullets, the success rate on animals taken would have been around 70% (which is very, very good for black bear hunting). The guides were very knowledgable, the staff was very friendly, and the food was excellent. I give this operation a "Two Thumbs Up!" and highly reccomend them to anyone. They have a web site at www.northcountrylodge.com .

Utah Hunting Information

Utah has recently been outstanding for trophy elk, but the best tags take many years to draw. Utah does have conservation tags available for purchase that allow hunters to bypass the drawing. Given the high demand for these premium tags prices can be high. In the past Utah has been a top trophy mule deer state but recently only a handful of units consistently produce B&C caliber deer.
