I went with them last year. Food was great, camp was good. I believe they are building a new cabin at the camp I was at (Four Ponds). Would be very cramped with camp full(6). We had pretty bad weather for most of our week but ended up killing our moose.

I wouldn't go there expecting a big moose but you should have an opportunity at a bull. From our experience and our guides talking it seemed like the last week of September/ first of October is when you want to go. Any later rut is winding down and you are hunting dead moose.

Our moose were 28" and 39". The 28" seemed like the average size judging by the stories on the cabin walls.

The hunting methods were go on top of a lookout and call with an electronic caller all day. You hunt a different lookout each day but if camp is full you are hunting the same spots over and over all season. All spots were accessible by a short atv ride to a lake with a boat. There were local hunters driving the power line but were strictly road hunting.

Very beautiful terrain, damn near mountainous. If you have any other questions fire away.

We are heading to Roberts outfitting Oct 6th for a 6 day hunt for moose. We will be at 4 ponds. I have a couple questions for you. How long of a shot should we be expecting? Did you drive right to the camps? How much did it cost to get your moose processed? Or can we process it ourselves? Did you do alot of walking? Can we fish while we are at camp? Thanks for any info

New guy here, lurker for awhile but I felt compelled to offer honest advise on Roberts. 6 of us in camp all of us were successful. Nothing we shot was big, our group did take 2 cows and 4 bulls. We hunted 4 ponds also. You will drive to camp and leave your vehicle about 1/2 a mile from camp on the powerline road, from there you will take a SxS back to the lodge. The style of hunting is to drive by boat or SxS to established locations that they hunt on a daily basis, sometimes hunting over gutpiles from previous hunts. All our shots were under 250 yards but there were places that we could have shot well over 500. I believe the cost of butchering was around $500, if you can I HIGHLY recommend you butcher yourself. Fishing season will be closed while you are there. Not sure what type of shape you are in but I would advise you that the road gets hunted VERY hard with lots of competition by locals and get in as deep as you can. I was fortunate enough to have the best guide in camp, he has been there the longest his name was Winston. Absolute great gentleman and the other guide that I would recommend is Calvin. I wanted a tough hunt and wanted to work hard for an animal and we got it done on the 4th day. Not sure what your expectations are but I wouldn't pass on an animal if given a choice.
