Alberta Moose Hunting
Mountain Horseback Moose Hunts & Ranchland Moose Hunts in Alberta,
Canada with Lost Guide Outfitters
Mountain Horseback Moose Hunts:
Our mountain horseback moose hunting trips start on September 24 and
run until the end of November. Our mountain area includes the upper
Clearwater River Valley, Forbidden Creek and Lost Guide Lake. It is
bordered by Banff National Park to the west and Ya-ha-Tinda ranch
to the south. The upper portion of our area is closed to motorized
vehicles and is accessible by horseback or team and wagon only.
The moose are still in the rut in September and early October and
hunting during this time can be quite successful.
We have had good success the first couple of weeks in October. Our
average size is 35-45 inches with some taken to 50 inches. Our success
rate the last couple of years is about 75% Kill.
Due to the high altitude and early winter conditions we try to be
out of our upper camp by the end of October. If you desire a late
mountain hunt we would hunt the lower end of our mountain area until
the end of November, which is accessible by ATV.
Ranchland Moose Hunts:
Ranchland moose hunts take place from
November 1-November 30. These hunts are on and around our ranch which
is located on the edge of the foothills of the Rocky Mountains northwest
of Calgary. These moose hunts are 6 day spot and stalk hunts. Our
average size is about 30-40 inches and we have had good success the
last few years.
We have lived here for many years and we know the area very well.
We have access to some very good private and public land. While this
hunt is not as physical as our mountain hunts, it is still and exciting
hunting experience with a lot of big bull moose in the area. Accommodations
are at my ranch or a nearby guest ranch, depending on the number in
your party.
