Quebec Outfitter #3, N. Quebec
A second generation, family owned, world class caribou outfitter with very competitive rates and a reputation of outstanding service. IHC is proud to now offer you direct contact with this operation. This outfitter has very recently acquired the outfitting licenses, assets, and camps(territories), of both Luco and Caribou adventures. The sure sign of a first class caribou operation is the ability to adapt and overcome. This operation has done just that by diversifying its operations offering hunting in all regions of Northern Quebec, both below and above the 57th North.
Charlie Putt's B&C scored 400 3/8
No one knows Northern Quebec better then us. We have over 45 years of guiding and outfitting experience offering hunting in over 50 territories. Our success is second to none. We have averaged 90% on 2 caribou,( offering only fair chase hunts), since we incorporated in 1986. This is an honest evaluation not one adjusted to look perfect. 80% of our clientele are repeat guests, that speaks for itself.
We operate our own private aircraft. If a move to a more productive camp will be beneficial it will be done "free of charge" without hesitation or complication. We have camps that can intercept both of Quebec's 2 main herds the Leaf River herd and the George River herd.
We take only 180 clients a year which by Quebec standards is only mid- size. Some competitors take close to 1000 and to them you are just an invoice number. We are large enough to be price competitive and small enough to get to know our clients.
We have more camps per hunter ratio than any other outfitter. We run only 4 camps per week, with 8 hunters per camp. There are over 10 spare camps for every operational one. That means we have more spare camps to move hunters to during changes in the migration. Plus all camps are plywood constructed not tents. Boats, motors and other equipment are in top shape: we know your success depends on it.
All Packages Available ( priced out of Montreal): include licenses and tax
1x2 Fully guided camp:
This camp is for those who want a more personal service and a little more luxury than other Camps.

When you are comparing the top caribou lodges in Quebec this one has to be on your list.
If you are looking for the complete package of top rated service with terrific
success this is the Quebec operation you have to consider.
Alain began operating his own lodge in 1997. He
knew what to took to offer a top quality hunt along with customer service. If
there is a more respected outfitter in Quebec then Alain let us know. He has
mutual respect from past clients as well as his fellow outfitter competitors.
Leaf River Hunt:
The Leaf
River area of Northern Quebec provides trophy hunting that is unique and
unmatched.
Why??? No hunting pressure is the main reason. This is an
isolated region that presents tough challenges that many outfitters prefer to
avoid. Alain Tardif and several of his top guides have hunted the Leaf and they
know how to operate in this remote area. The trophy is incredible and we are
confident that this will be the hunt of a lifetime. In 2000 we built a new VIP
camp that accommodates 6 guests (3 guides) with superior accommodations, hunting the Leaf River Herd priced at
$7,495 US.
Whale River Camps: You can also enjoy very good fishing at the
same time (until Sept. 7)
Camp 1: Our first camp is located at 152 miles North East of
Schefferville Quebec. Built on the bank of the famous Whale River, this set up
was used primarily for Atlantic salmon fishing until we discovered that caribou
migration was happening during the month of September. Now we often bring 12
guests in when necessary. Each camp sleeps 4, a side in another building we have
bathroom facilities, toilettes, showers, hot water, etc. Our dining room can
seat 18 guests if needed. Our cooks will prepare all your meals. All our camps
have electricity from diesel generators. The equipment is top on the list and we
also make sure that everything is very clean.
CAMP 2: Our second camp is located 138 miles east of Schefferville Quebec on
Lake Chapiteau which borders Quebec and Labrador. What a nice place.
Each cabin sleeps 6 guests for a total of 12. Cabins are insulated and very
comfortable. Bathrooms, running water, hot showers, etc. are located at this
camp. At our dining room, you will be fed like a king. Electricity is also
provided with diesel generators. The equipment is top on the list and we also
make sure that everything is very clean. You will get one guide for every two
hunters at this camp.
Our 2nd hunting package is a semi-guided one: still 2 Caribou limit with a 1 guide to three hunters ratio priced at $6,495 US. We also offer a late September trophy hunt with superior accommodations and a 1 guide to 2 hunter ratio for $8,495 US
packages include: taxes; air transportation
between Montreal and the hunting camp and return; lodging and ground
transportation at Schefferville; meals; meat boxes and packaging;
transportation of meat and one split set of caribou antlers
Hunting and Fishing Seasons:
This camp has trees on both sides of the river and you need to be in good
physical condition to hunt this area.
Easy to hunt, practically no trees, mostly tundra and no big elevation. This
camp always gets the caribou early in the season because of its location. Not
far from the Labrador coast where caribou spend the summer. We are the first
ones in line when caribou start their annual migration to the west.
Caribou season: August 12 - Sept 30
Black Bear & Small game seasons: August 25 - Sept 30
Hunting & Fishing season: August 1 - Sept 7

"NEW REGION"
CARIBOU HUNTING IN NORTHERN MANITOBA
If there was ever a hunt to guarantee success this would be it!
Come and experience your Caribou hunt of a lifetime!
We hunt the Central Barren Ground Caribou in migration. Our camp is located in an area where hundreds often thousands of caribou pass on their way to their winter feeding grounds in the south.
Manitoba opened caribou hunting to non-residents in 1995 and the results are truly a world-class hunt. The province licenses only 500 hunters a year, resident and non-resident.
The Qamanirjuaq herd now numbers 500,000 animals. They spend their summers in the barren grounds of Nunavut, calving at Qamanirjuaq Lake, then migrating down late every summer, spending their winter in Manitoba's Northern Forests.
There are many animals in the Boone & Crocket category as well as Pope & Young taken each year. Expect average scores of around 330. In recent years, some of Manitoba's top Barren Ground Caribou were taken at our camp.
This is an excellent opportunity for a trophy animal. Our camp is located 3 miles south of the Manitoba / Nunavut border. This is an excellent area for bow hunters with small stands of spruce and dwarf birch for cover. We hunt for caribou mainly by boat, foot or "hunting blinds" on their migration trails.
While hunting can be done in as little as a mile from camp you should expect to do a fair amount of walking. There are boats available for those who want to cover more area.
BONUS! Just a few yards from the camp, the avid Sportsman can indulge in some phenomenal fishing for Lake Trout and Arctic grayling and/or hunt for Wolf or Ptarmigan (upland game birds). While limiting our camp to 6 hunters per hunt, we are guaranteeing that you receive the utmost personalized hunting experience. We offer a ratio of 1 guide per 2 hunters and have the outstanding success rate of almost 100%.

HUNTING DATES
In 2010, These caribou hunts were once again 100% with some exceptional bulls taken. The caribou migration started out very steady, despite the warmer weather. It did slow down for a few days during our second hunt, however when the weather turned and got colder, we experienced a migration like never before. Thousands of caribou started coming through on their migration south. Our hunters were privileged to have had this special experience.

Woodland Caribou densities in our area are some of the highest recorded in Newfoundland. In our hunting are we operate from a main lodge and outlying camps. Success rates are near 100% but we hunt for a trophy. To do so, it is necessary to view a number of animals and if we do not see a trophy animal in one area we move to another in consultation with the guest
It is not unusual to size up a large number of animals in a week's hunt. We hunt the most productive areas of the Middle Ridge Herd (14,000 animals) which has larger antlers than most other caribou herds - actually, most Boone and Crockett woodland caribou records (in the top 10) have come from our area. Over the past few years we have taken a number of Boone and Crockett records (our president is a B & C Official Measurer). Due to Government restrictions we offer less than 20 caribou hunts per year.
***You will have to get to St. John's for pickup. There are a number flights daily into St. John’s through eastern North American Airports. ***
Moose hunts are offered in the fall. Our fully qualified guides are at your service to assist you have an enjoyable hunt. We hunt around the Gander River area. Generally we have 90% opportunity on moose. We hunt along the banks of the river; along the ridges of timber; or use old woods roads.
Black Bear hunts are stumble on hunts and are available in the Fall as an add on to the caribou or moose hunt. We have one of the highest black bear densities in Nfld., Some bears can weigh in excess of 600 pounds. A bear hunt can be added to caribou or moose for $500.
Airport pickup
at Gander International Airport ( or St. John's airport if preferred) can be
arranged. There are a number flights daily into Gander through eastern North
American Airports. There are also options to come by ferry and drive to Gander
(spectacular).
We

wilderness ( accessed by aircraft ), that is primarily open maritime barrens
with scattered forest lands and ideal for hunting from a stationary position or
spot and stalk. Our clients are the only hunters in the area

Newfoundland Out. #3, Newfoundland
Through my experience in Commercial Bush Flying, I can honestly say that Harold's Pond and Steele's Lake Lodge has produced World Class Hunting for Woodland Caribou, Moose & Black Bear. These hunts do require walking over semi-rugged terrain, yet not overly difficult to travel, the amount you will need to travel will be on the average a direct function of the quality trophy you desire. Instead of solid timbered areas there is rolling terrain with islands of timber making it ideal terrain for glassing the countryside. It provides for an exciting Spot & Stalk Hunt. ..`Bob Efford, owner '
Offering the best in Pristine, remote, top
quality, fly-in, trophy Woodland Caribou hunting in Western and Central
Newfoundland
Our location...With our fly-in remoteness and a never before hunted
country range, the lake provides our guests with near perfect success in taking
Boone & Crocket and Pope & Young Trophies. At our Trophy Caribou camp we take a
maximum of 4 hunters per week, yet we can accommodate up to 6 hunters, but only
within the same party. The lodge has all the creature comforts of home; hot and
cold running water with
showers, generated electricity and propane refrigeration, as well as a mobile
radio telephone system.
At the lodge we have two aluminum boats and 2 canoes with outboard
motors for use to travel a nine mile water system. The western region of this
system boasts the best caribou terrain in NFLD (ie. being their breeding and
calving range). With miles of white caribou moss covering the rolling terrain
and frequent shrubby Junipers, Caribou find this terrain to be prime habitat.
These caribou hunts can be tailored to your needs. You may choose for a 1:1
hunt,(a personal guide) or a 2:1 hunt (2 hunters per one guide).
..
The terrain consists mostly of tundra, lots of rolling hills and spots of timber
stands. The spot and stalk method is usually the type of hunt for these
Woodland Caribou.
Two weeks prior to our rifle season we have a two week exclusive Bow Hunting Season. It allows great opportunity for the Bow Hunting enthusiast to bag his trophy stag.
BLACK BEAR
Bob's Lake, as well as Harold's Pond, provides good chances to
stumble onto a Black Bear, especially at Bob's Lake. There is a high population
of these
trophy bruins weighing in excess of 500-600 lbs.
Tree stands will also be used for hunting these bears. Even though it is
much more difficult to keep a bear around the bait during the fall, the
chances fro success will run 40 - 50%. This is due to the vase expanses of
berries that these bears feed on.
PTARMIGAN
Ptarmigan hunting presents a splendid way to spend these long days
after you have bagged your game. There are hundreds of these birds nestled away
in those Partridge Berry Hills. Also other small game, include Grouse, Snowshoe
and Arctic Hares.
BOW HUNTING --- late August - mid- Sept.: BOW / RIFLE ------- mid SEPT. - mid Nov.
Hunts include accommodations, guides, licenses, food, boats and motors, flight to and from the lodge, airport pick- up, meat packaging and trophy preparation. Hunts are from Saturday to Saturday

FANTASTIC FISHING
Across the lake from camp is an ancient Inuit ( Eskimo ) campsite, one of the
largest known! Further down the lake stand Inukshuks, the eerie stone left
behind by ancient cultures thousands of years ago! For those of you interested
in the Sir John Franklin expedition of 1821, we have located the grave of one of
his men, Mr. Hood. You will want to bring lots of film to capture your memories
and the tranquillity of the Barren-grounds, resplendent in its kaleidoscope of
