WELCOME 
BIENVENUE
Have you always wanted go on a caribou hunt?
Northern Canada is the place!
We have compiled one of the most extensive internet pages
highlighting some of the " best outfitters
"
offering Caribou Hunting in
Canada.
Do not be surprised by the "big" turnstile operations
not on the site.
Other species can be found on other I Hunt Canada
pages - see list below
We offer you choices when it comes to choosing a reputable
caribou outfitter. No matter what some of the big operations try to tell you
there is NO one outfitter that can
fill the desires of everyone. Choose an outfitter that fits your needs and
desires, not one that you have to squeeze into their particular offerings. There
are some operations out there you are best to avoid. Ask all caribou outfitters
you are considering if they are listed on our exclusive site with the "best of
the best" caribou operations.
If hunting and fishing are a big part of your life I suggest you bookmark this page now! Just to make it easier to find us again and again.

Some of you may be interested in a Winter Caribou hunt (generally no horns) please go here
Newfoundland Out. #2,
Our president is a Wildlife Scientist who was Chief Biologist with the Newfoundland and Labrador Government for 14 years.
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
near100% 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
hundred or more 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).
Black Bear hunts Spring hunts available in
May and June. Fall hunts are also available. We have one of the
highest black bear densities in Nfld., Some bears can weigh in
excess of 700 pounds.
Airport pickup at Gander
International Airport ( or St. John's airport if preferred) can be
arranged. There are 10 flights daily into Gander through eastern
North American Airports. There are also options to come by ferry
and drive to Gander (spectacular).
Hunting Dates: Caribou, moose and black
bear hunting seasons run from mid September through to early
January. We usually book parties for a week - Sunday to Saturday
but we are flexible and can tailor to individual needs. Bow hunting
only starts Sept. 1
* Note: This company specializes in Trophy
Woodland Caribou Hunts. We can arrange for a caribou -
moose combo if you like Our last few hunting seasons have been very
successful with a 96% success rate for caribou and 98% for moose.
Our hunting dates start in mid-September and end in late
October.
Our hunts start and end at Deer Lake
Newfoundland to which you can either drive or fly via commercial
airlines. From Deer Lake we fly you by float plane to the hunting
camp at Cormack Lake. Our package price includes: fly-in
transportation; accommodation; meals; guides (1:1); taxes and your
big game license.
You hunt for 6 days on long rolling hills covered
with small black spruce and shrub - plenty of open barren ground -
lots of bogs - a spotting scope is recommended. Our guides will
take special care of your game. Hunting references sent with our
information packages
Bill is easy to deal with - friendly outfitter.
Great packages.
Although 2002 was our first year
owning this business our guides have 25 - 45 years of
experience.
Newfoundland allocates to each of its licensed big game outfitters
and exclusive area measuring 16 kilometers in diameter. These
designated areas are far removed from other outfitters by buffer
zones. Our camp is on the shores of Cochrane Pond. It is located in
Caribou Area 63 which is the largest herd and highest harvest
allocation in Newfoundland.
Accommodations:
we have 2 cabins; one for hunters and
the other for guides. The hunter's cabin sleeps up to 9 with
bathroom, kitchen and a dining/living room. It has both gas and
electric hot water. Our helicopter pad is adjacent to the cabins.
New in 2003:
we have applied to build a spike camp
near the White Bear River. Caribou and bear abound there. Hunters
will now be able to overnight at this spike camp in a temporary
facility until a "full-time functioning" cabin is built.
2007 Season:
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
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.

are very limited. We have access to both a float plane and a
helicopter thus delays in travel times are rare due to
weather. We hunt both the George River and Leaf
River caribou herds.
Hunting: our camps are
strategically located in areas of the highest concentration of
animals on their annual migration. By being in the right place at the
right time, it enables our clients to have consistently high success
rates.
Accommodations: cabins
or tents on wooden floors; beds & mattress; running water; propane
or wood stove for heating; kitchen fully equipped; flush and dry
toilets. Generally 6 - 12 people per camp. Our representative will

Guided all inclusive package
$4,350 US
During our caribou hunts fishing, ptarmigan and bear
can be added when in season just for your cost of a
license.
We take 300 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. 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.

This company offers one of the highest success rates
for caribou hunts in Quebec. 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.
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) hunting the Leaf River
Herd priced at $5,995 US.
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.
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:
For centuries man has hunted the vast treeless
habitat of the Central Canadian Barren Ground Caribou. You can now

It is not uncommon to have thousands caribou within
3 miles of the main camp. 2007 and 2008 are booking up quickly
with repeat hunters, so if you want to hunt in the immediate future,
do not put off your booking/reservation too long.
Only two miles away lies the historic Caribou crossing... the only
one available to the animals in 145 miles of the Coppermine River.
This assures you of plentiful animals in the area. We expect you to
see at least 1,000 caribou from which to make a selection, and at
times many more! You will be accompanied by one of our guides,
all of which are tops in their ability to field score and assist you in
any way.
It is not uncommon to see
over 15,000 caribou walked through our camp.
Our price for 2007 is $5,400 US, with dates being mid
August through to late September . Several hunt periods are already
filled, so please do not lose out and make your reservation now!
This packaged is priced out of Yellowknife NWT, so plan
accordingly. Prices for 2008 will be $5,700; while our 2009 hunts
will be $6,000 US
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 autumn colors.
Picture a vibrant sunset every evening and as
darkness encroaches, the sky comes alive in a blaze of glory... the
famous Aurora Borealis... the Northern Lights. Bring lots of film to
record your memories.
Check with Barry's references they
will tell you how many animals they saw and the whole quality of
service you will receive.
We

The Mackenzie Mountains are well known for
producing some of the largest mountain
caribou found anywhere. Our 5,000 square mile area in the heart of
the Mackenzie Mountains not only has an extremely large, healthy
caribou population, it is also
well known for producing Pope and Young Mountain Caribou.
For the ardent archery hunter looking for a Pope and Young
Mountain Caribou to finish their caribou slam, this is a premier
destination. We offer a 12 day
special caribou hunt for both archery or rifle hunters, caribou can
also be hunted as add-on animals on both our Dall Sheep and or
Alaska/Yukon Moose hunts.

Hunts: Vancouver Island Black
Bear:
We offer both Spring and Fall spot and stalk
hunts for Black Bear on Vancouver Island. Our concession is
2,000 square miles and has over
40 grizzly-fee salmon river valleys. An abundant food supply, a
temperate rain forest climate with a long growing season, no grizzly
predation, along with superior
genetics all contribute to the remarkable size of our bears. Simply
put, there aren't any other locations that have a higher Black Bear
population or greater consistency
in size and age of bears harvested.

Newfoundland Outfitter #5,
Our success rate for 2006 was 100% with 22
hunters which is our maximun number each year.
The only way non-residents of Newfoundland can
hunt is with a licensed outfitter and a Newfoundland guide.
Therefore, it is up to us to make your hunt not only successful but
one of anticipation, camaraderie, relaxation and lasting memories.
We know that hunting is so much more than just killing something.
Here, you will experience pristine wilderness, see lakes, ponds and
streams so clear and clean that you can drink from any of them,
meet the hardy, seafaring people and stalk the largest trophy-class
Woodland caribou and black bear in North America.

Newfoundland Out. #3,
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.
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 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.
note from T2C: we received
terrific feedback from guests that enjoyed their hunt with Bob in the
past.

Region better then us as we have over 30 years of guiding and
outfitting experience here. Our success is second to none. We have
averaged 96% on 2 caribou 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

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.

This is the best combination of
game, service,
accommodations and pure adventure in the
NWT barrenlands.
Operating in an
absolutely remote location, you will be amazed at the abundance of
game, fish and exhilarating scenery!
Obstruction Rapids our main camp is unparalleled

Pope and Young trophies, and 6 of the top 11 Safari Club trophies!
Plus we still hold the worlds
records for Safari Club and Longhunt (blackpowder).

so why look elsewhere? At 185 miles north of Yellowknife, (50
miles south of the Arctic circle) with access only by air, this camp is
situated on a high bluff overlooking Lake Providence.
This picture is from opening day
2005 season 
From clients T2C has sent from `98
- `06 they all say they want to go back and hunt with Barry again.
Guests have had a 100% success rate in these

Wolf and wolverine are seen frequently and
occasionally taken; ptarmigan are always found behind the camp
and make for some interesting sport in the evening.
Huge Lake Trout (biggest was
47 pounds, Arctic Grayling averaged 3+ pounds, and ravenous
Northern Pike (4 feet in length) abound in the waters of Lake
Providence. 45 miles in length it is virtually virgin fishing and will
thrill you with many hours of pure excitement. By practicing catch-
