WILDERNESS PACK-IN
(fully guided)

This is the ultimate in elk hunting. The way elk should be hunted! No high fences to bound you or the elk,  just miles of seemingly endless elk Elk hunting in unit 66

habitat. There is no greater hunting accomplishment than having harvested a wilderness bull elk. Pack-in elk hunts are our specialty.  We raise and train most all of our stock for the rigors of this type of hunt. All of our equipment is top notch and has been field tested, tried and true in the wilderness. Having outfitted in these same areas for over 20 years we have become very accustomed to the patterns of this particular herd.  Oftentimes we know how they are going to react before they do. Action Adventures is a full time outfitter and elk hunting is what we do best.
On this elk hunt you will follow a long pack string through tall stands of aspen and dark timber, along grassy alpine meadows to our base camp deep in the Uncompahgre Wilderness. All guided rifle elk hunts are wilderness pack-in. There are 2 hunters per guide with a maximum of 6 hunters in camp. You will feast on 2 hardy home cooked meals, plus a sack lunch each day.  Nothing is spared for your total comfort and complete satisfaction. All hunts are 5 full days of hunting, with a day of travel time at the beginning and end of each trip a total of 7 days in the field.

Fee for this hunt is $3850

PRIVATE LAND OUTFITTED
(semi-guided)

This is one of the best combination elk and deer hunts you will find. There is also a large number of black bears in the early seasons. This productive ranch is completely behind locked gates. It also land locks a large tract of National Forest which is accessed only through private land. This hunt is Colorado Elk Huntinga hybrid of a guided hunt and a drop camp. You are provided with lodging, 2 home cooked meals, along with a sack lunch each day, riding horses, and a guide in camp to show you the ranch plus GPS coordinates of the  best spots on the National Forest. This hunt allows you the freedom of a drop camp, to hunt on your own without all the cooking and camp chores.

It is based out of our private ranch that accesses several thousand acres of land locked national forest and also adjoins a state wildlife area.  All you have to do is concentrate on bagging that big bull. You are outfitted with everything you need to have a successful  hunt. If you like the challenge of elk hunting on your own with all the extras of a full service hunt without the high price tag, this is the one for you. Comparable guided hunts would run in access of $5000. These are great  hunts for the veteran hunter and novice alike. You will have a comfortable cabin to stay in and the finest in home cooked meals.  Anyone filling their tags early can fish for rainbows and brookies in our private lake. The ranch can be reached by 4WD, and provides a great opportunity for those that can't get around like they use too. There are miles of roadless forest  for those wanting to hunt this remote unspoiled area by horseback or foot.

Fee for this hunt is $2950 (elk only) $3250 Combo.
