Wyoming Unit 51 Wilderness Pack In Trophy Elk Hunt

ABOUT OUTFITTER:
This HFA-Endorsed Outfitter is a proud, family-owned and operated business, run by lifelong Wyoming residents. With nearly 20 years of experience guiding in the region, they now manage four well-established camps throughout Western Wyoming. The area boasts an abundant population of elk, moose, bear, and mountain lion, offering hunters and outdoor enthusiasts an exceptional wilderness experience. Their specially bred horses are strong, sure-footed, and gentle—ideal for navigating rugged terrain. All tack and equipment are meticulously maintained, and their experienced, passionate guides are committed to delivering 100% effort to ensure a memorable and successful adventure.

HUNT DETAILS:
This premier elk hunt begins at a trailhead where hunters ride several hours on horseback into a remote backcountry camp. Located on the western edge of Yellowstone National Park in Unit 51, this area is historically known for producing trophy-class bulls.

While elk densities here may be lower than in some other parts of the state, this outfitter and their experienced guides focus on quality over quantity—working hard to consistently put clients on bulls in the 330"–360"+ range.

All hunts are conducted on horseback, offering a classic and immersive Western hunting experience. The backcountry camp is supported by a full-time cook who prepares hearty, all-you-can-eat meals, ensuring comfort even in rugged terrain.

This is physically demanding country, with elevations ranging from 8,500 to 11,000 feet. Prospective hunters are strongly encouraged to arrive in top physical condition. Both archery and rifle hunts are available, and the outfitter is committed to giving every client a fair shot at a truly exceptional bull.

ACCOMMODATIONS:
Their tent camps are impressively clean, thoughtfully organized, and outfitted with wood stoves, new cots, a real shower stall, and hearty, home-cooked meals. The Wyoming Outfitter Board has awarded this operation its highest possible rating.

LICENSE INFORMATION:
Licenses for all seasons and hunts in Wyoming are allocated through the state draw. Each unit and season require different numbers of preference points to draw a license. Huntin' Fool License Application Service will help you apply at the time of application.
