HUNT DETAILS:
This outfitter takes pride in delivering top-quality guided hunts by limiting the number of hunters they take each year. This selective approach ensures that each hunt receives full attention and a highly personalized experience. Every hunter is supported by a minimum of two dedicated guides or spotters, maximizing the chances for success.

Guiding hunters to their dream rams is not just a job—it’s their passion and what they dedicate themselves to each season. They're truly grateful to every past and present client who has trusted them to be part of their journey in pursuing these incredible animals.

ACCOMMODATIONS:
Accommodations for sheep hunting with this outfitter are designed to support the demands of a high-country, physically challenging hunt while keeping hunters as comfortable and well-prepared as possible. Depending on the unit and location, camps may include backcountry spike camps, wall tents, or lightweight backpack-style setups.

In remote areas, spike camps are typically accessed by horseback or on foot and are strategically placed close to known ram habitat to minimize daily travel. These camps are equipped with essentials like quality tents, warm sleeping gear, and simple but hearty meals to fuel long days of glassing and climbing.

For more accessible hunts, base camps may feature larger wall tents with cots, wood stoves, and a full camp setup staffed by a cook and support team. Regardless of the camp style, hunters can expect experienced guides, well-planned logistics, and a strong emphasis on safety, preparation, and success in the rugged terrain that defines a true Bighorn sheep hunt.

LICENSE INFORMATION:
Most big game tags in Idaho are issued through a limited-entry draw system. For bighorn sheep, there is no bonus point or preference point system—all applicants have equal odds each year, regardless of past participation. Hunters must apply in the spring, and only one application is allowed per year for moose, mountain goat, or bighorn sheep.
