Kootenay Outfitters territory is located 3 hours S-SW of Calgary, Alberta. We border Kootenay Nat. Park, Banff Nat. Park, and Mt. Assiniboine Provincial Park. Located 10 miles East of Radium Hot Springs, B.C., our territory is close to tourist attractions and year round outdoor attractions.

Located in S.E. British Columbia, our territory is in the heart of the Rocky Mountains. This area is called the Kootenay region of B.C. Our territory covers approx. 900 sq. miles of some of the best wilderness big game hunting found in North America. Our area's terrain varies from the majestic mountain peaks cover with glaciers in the North to the expanse of the river valley's to the South. High alpine meadows can be found throughout the area along with log blocks, creating ideal habitat for the many different species found there.


Accommodations: We have excellent pack and saddle horses to aid the hunter with travel in the territory. Roomy wall tents along with 3 sets of cabins are used to house hunters. Several spike camps are also used to access remote areas. Knowledgeable, experienced guides will assist during your hunt. 4x4 and truck hunts are available for hunters not interested in horseback hunting.

All tags are guaranteed with no draw to apply for. Select your hunting dates and come hunt! We offer 1x1 or 2x1 hunts. Combo tags are available on any hunt.

Elk Hunting: Come experience the thrill of hunting elk during the peak of the bugle. Our archery hunts begin on Sept. 1st with rifle season opening on Sept. 10th running thru Oct. 20th. All elk hunts are 7 full days of hunting. We are restricted to 6 point (on one beam) or better bulls during rifle season. This restriction properly manages the elk herd, insuring only proper age class bulls being harvested. 300 class bulls are to be expected with opportunities at bulls ranging from the 270-360 B&C class.



Mtn. Goat: This area consistently produces Billies in the 9"- 10"+ range. Come hunt the famous big billies of BC on this 1x1 fully guided hunt of a lifetime. Hunt Sept 10th- Nov 1st Can combo with elk, mule deer, whitetail, black bear or wolf.

Big Horn Sheep: Fully guided 1x1 12 day backpack hunt. This is a full curl restriction hunt with only big mature rams being legal. Typical rams range 170-180, with the largest ram taken scoring 204B&C. Hunt beside Banff and Kootenay National Parks.

Whitetails: This tag is typically part of a combo hunt, but we do offer rut hunts in November. Whitetails in this area range 120"- 140" but bigger bucks are found. Bucks are typically found in the river bottoms or log blocks.

Mule Deer: We start our rifle hunts on Sept. 10th with the true rut hunts being conducted in November. Bucks ranging from 140- 180 B&C are expected. These are true "Timberline Mossbacks" bucks.

Black Bear: Fall hunts are offered, but our spring spot and stalk hunts are our most productive. No baiting is allowed in British Columbia. We search log blocks, road ways and slide areas for feeding bears in early spring. Bears in the 6'- 61/2' range with excellent hides are the targeted animals. Color phase bears can be found. We also offer bear hunts with hounds for those wanting to experience the thrill of the chase!

Grizzly: This is a limited quota tag for Kootenay Outfitters. This is a fully guided 1x1 hunt with the Guide Outfitter. We only take one grizzly hunter each year. This is a hunt for big interior Rocky Mountain grizzlies. Included in this ten day hunt is an additional black bear tag.



Mt. Lion: We hunt exclusively for trophy toms. Hunts take place from December to early February. Combination hunts can include Lynx and/ or Bobcat. Toms reaching 130- 160 lbs. are consistently found in this area.

Shiras Moose: Archery hunts in early Sept. give archers the opportunity to hunt the pre-rut for bulls 40"-50"+ with the occasional 55" bull being found. Rifle hunts begin Oct. 15th. This is a fully guided 1x1 hunt with the Guide Outfitter.

Wolf: A wolf tag is recommended for all of our rifle hunts. These animals are very elusive and wary. Taking a wolf is rare, but for those who do, it's a true trophy of a lifetime!

Come join us for great Canadian big game hunting and a true wilderness adventure!
