Hunter must be able to sit in the saddle on average for 16-10 miles a day. Once goats are spotted, hunter will have some heavy hiking to close the distance to make a good shot on a Billy. Hunter can expect a lot of vertical gain and descent in some steep and rocky country. Better physically fit will provide better shot opportunity.

    Description

    The goat season will run into late October, but most prefer to hunt early in September when the weather is nicer. Goats live at high elevations, so hunter must be prepared for a quick change of weather. Snow may be present. Hunter needs to be prepared with good rain/wind gear, along with durable and comfortable hiking boots for steep and rocky terrain. Outfitter will supply accommodations at a lodge depending on which area is drawn. Hunt may choose a backcountry hunt, in which the outfitter will supply lodging in the form of a teepee or dome tent. This is a horseback hunt and so hunter must be prepared to spend some hours in the saddle, but can return to the lodge at the end of along day to a nice dinner and relaxing evening. Hunter will need to bring their own sleeping bag and pad. All field transportation will be provided by horseback. Full gear list to be provided when booked.
