2017 goat hunt??

[BasinBuster]

I'm wanting to go on a goat hunt and my luck drawing is not panning out. So I'm looking for suggestions of an outfitter to go with preferably in BC so I can just drive up. I'm up for doing backpack style or horse back.

Golden Bear, Bolen Lewis, or Wildcoast outfitters.

I would also check out Northwest Ranching and Outfitting, that's where the current world record came from.

All depends on how far you want to drive. I'd be calling sooner than later, most of these guys are heading out to the sheep shows/SCI conferences in the next couple months and if they aren't full already they will be after their run down south.

Copper River Outfitters. Jim Lancaster runs an excellent outfit and has tons of great goats.

If you end up going with copper river, make sure you plan so extra days to explore the rivers in that area. Steelhead Taj Mahal Mahal

Norsepeak,
Have you gone with copper river then? What year?

Try Chad Hanson at Nanika Lake outfitters. I'm not sure if he has anything available for this year, but I enjoyed my hunt with him in 2015. Based out of Smithers BC.

Yes, I have hunted with Copper River 4 times. They have a fantastic goat area with excellent genetics. They have recently built a very comfortable hunting lodge/cabin up in the heart of the their goat territory. The food is ridiculous...I've gained weight every time I've been there..lol. I killed my goat with them in 2010. My cousin got his goat with them in 2013. I've also taken 2 moose with them. I did go on a late season predator hunt with them and the weather was horrible and I was not able to harvest. Jim treated me very well and offered to have me come back for another full hunt at no charge or take a 50% refund on the current hunt. I thought that was very generous professional of him. I will hunt with him again in the near future. He just picked up a new hunting area that he says has fantastic bears and moose. I think next will be a spring bear hunt with archery gear.
