Northwest Territories Premium Dall Sheep Hunts

ABOUT OUTFITTER:
This is a seasoned outfitting team that brings decades of experience, tradition, and passion for the outdoors to every hunt they guide. With deep roots in hunting families and a lifelong dedication to the lifestyle, they have built a strong reputation for delivering world-class adventures in some of North America’s most rugged and remote terrain. The operation began with a passion for Bighorn Sheep hunting in Alberta, starting with the purchase of their first tags at the age of 18. Over the years, this grew into a full-scale outfitting business now known for operating in one of the province’s premier areas.

The family legacy also extends far beyond Alberta. One member of the team spent her childhood summers in the Mountains in the NWT, where her family operated a respected outfitting business for many years. After earning her helicopter pilot license in 2008, she flew for the family business for a decade before founding her own tourism aviation company. Years after the sale of the concession, the original family member, along with a few experienced partners reacquired the exclusive hunting area. Together, they now operate what is regarded as one of the finest Dall Sheep areas in the world in the Northwest Territories.

HUNT DETAILS:
This outfitter offers 12-day guided hunts, including both backpack and helicopter-assisted options for maximum access and adventure. Each hunt is conducted one-on-one with a professional guide, ensuring a personalized and highly focused experience.
