Caribou Hunting in the Northwest
Territories. Trophy Book Outfitters is now booking guided Caribou
Hunts in the NWT, Canada
Hunt trophy Barren Ground Caribou
in Canada's Northwest Territories 175 miles north of Yellowknife,
NWT. The remote hunting area is located on Desteffany Lake. This
picturesque area of the Canadian barrens is diversified with ridges,
eskers, hills and numerous small lakes. The broken terrain provides
exceptionally good cover, especially for bowhunting. Desteffany
Lake is located on the traditional migration route of the Bathurst
Herd of the central barren ground caribou. Over the past 14 years,
the caribou hunts have been extremely successful, with 90% success
at harvesting a trophy and 95% shot opportunity. Numerous record
book caribou have been taken with both bow and rifle.
Caribou hunts begin in Yellowknife, in the Northwest Territories.
You will then travel by floatplane for about 1 hour to the remote
hunting camp on Desteffany Lake. Camp is situated in the heart of
barren ground grizzly country. Government regulations restrict hunting
on the first day, so you can spend most of the day spotting caribou,
enjoying some excellent fishing, or just relaxing. For the next
5 days you will spend 8-10 hours a day hunting for trophy bulls.
Caribou are normally spotted along the shoreline from boats or when
hiking inland. Everyday will bring a new adventure.
As a bonus, Desteffany Lake offers some spectacular Lake Trout and
Arctic Grayling fishing. Cast from shore for grayling and trout
or try for a trophy lake trout by trolling from a boat. For the
ultimate thrill, catch grayling or lake trout on your fly rod while
watching caribou graze nearby. Some fishing equipment and lures
are available at camp for your use.
We are now taking bookings
