 TOA operates north of Montana’s Glacier National Park in nearly 1300 square miles of wilderness, much of it behind provincial road closures, in the Kootenay mountains of southeastern British Columbia. We use a remuda of well-trained mountain horses to access our backcountry. We have several comfortable spike cabins which you might use to overnight in with your guide if hot elk rutting activity is found too far from the lodge to access in time to conduct the next early morning hunt properly.  NOTE…Our elk hunts are 7-Day trips with five (5) full days of hunting…arrival the day before and departure the day after. Clients should plan to fly into Cranbrook, BC.

 

For rifle hunters, ours is a 6-point area giving bulls the chance to grow to maturity, so we have lots of mature bulls here…and TOA clients have the rare advantage here to hunt the peak of the bugle season from mid-September to early October with modern firearms. Bulls sport racks with great mass and good tine length. An average bull here will score 280”—330”, but each season our clients kill a bull or two in the 340”—370” range as well. 

 

Hunting bull elk during the bugle season adds a whole new element to any elk hunt, especially when you can carry your favorite rifle into the elk mountains during those magic months of September and early October. And those vocalizations help your guides a great deal in locating elk activity. TOA’s experienced guides then go to work getting you in on rutting bulls with bugles, cow calls and other effective calling techniques.
