Our base camp in the western Alaska Range is locally known as Emerald Valley and lies at an elevation of 1800 feet.  The topography is spruce forest and rolling tundra, with rising alpine mountains upwards to 8000 feet.  Most of the sheep hunting is conducted between 2900 and 5500 feet in elevation.

Hunting from this camp is generally done safari style.  Our hunting area is geographically unique, as it is year around habitat to all seven species of animals that we hunt.  If your preference is a Dall’s ram, you are very likely to see a good bull moose, caribou, black bear, or a grizzly while sheep hunting.  Wolves and wolverine are the rarest of the animals generally seen or taken.

Our Emerald Valley camp consists of a two-story main lodge building with hot and cold running water, a shower and laundry facility. Several smaller individual guest cabins or tent/cabins make up the sleeping accommodations for our clients. Meals and relaxation takes place in the lodge building.

During your hunt with us, it is unlikely that you will encounter another hunter, except one from your own party.  We operate strictly on the principle of FAIR CHASE.  In the western Alaska Range we do utilize several four-wheel, all-terrain vehicles to transport supplies, trophies, and meat into base camp.  This allows us to spread our harvest over a larger area, thus minimizing hunter impact.  Each client will have his own guide, unless other arrangements have been made. Sometimes we are able, by prior arrangement, to quote a special price for a two client/one guide hunt.

Our food is the best available.  Simple, but bountiful, nutritious and well balanced.  We make use of the game meat provided by our clients and it is always a highlight to dine on fresh sheep or caribou steaks early in the hunt!

Almost all clients’ camping equipment is included.  Nearly all of our camps are equipped with gas, oil or wood heaters, cots, mattresses and high quality sleeping bags, along with countless other items to ensure a comfortable, enjoyable, safe and successful hunt.

When you book your hunt we will provide you with a list of suggested supplemental equipment and supplies you may want to bring along.

We will also be asking you to fill out a “Client Questionnaire” so that we can know about any special needs or requests you might have, your physical condition, your experience, and other information that will help us to make your hunt an enjoyable, successful one.
