Northern Saskatchewan Canada
Even though we are in a remote location you are able to drive directly to our camp, either through Manitoba (via Winnipeg) or through Saskatchewan.
If you are flying, it is most convenient to fly into Saskatoon and rent a vehicle for your 420 KM drive to camp.
Orientation “Bear Facts”
When you arrive at camp you will get settled in, sight in your weapons, and get all the licenses straightened out for the hunt.
Each hunter will be provided with the basic information of your hunt, and meet the guides and camp staff.
All bait locations are pre-baited at least a month before the hunter’s arrival and continued throughout the hunting season. This ensures that all bait sites are fresh and active and will have multiple animals routinely feeding from them. Our hunting stands and blinds are placed appropriately for bow, muzzleloader and rifle hunters.
Hunters may hunt from a ladder stand, hang-on stand, self-climber stand, heated box blinds or ground blind. We hunt from tree stands with shooting lanes cut to the baits. We use natural vegetation to conceal our ground blinds. Bow hunting stands are typically 15 yds on average and a typical distance of 40-60 yards for rifle hunting. These are placed to allow the hunter the opportunity to accurately judge the size of the animals and ensure they are satisfied with their trophy.
Bottom line, we take our job seriously and do it very well.
100% Opportunity – 35% Colour Phase Bears – Success is in your Shot!
When the hunt is completed for the day we pick up the hunters and start listening to the stories! In the spring once tags are filled there may be an opportunity to go fishing to fill the remaining days. In November deer season, after you have filled your tag you may have the opportunity to experience a day on a trap line!
Check the weather forecast prior to your trip.

About Bringing Firearms into Canada
There are federal (Canadian) firearms regulations concerning ownership, ammunition, transporting, first-served, and bringing firearms into Canada.
You will have to submit a Non-Resident Firearm Declaration form RCMP 5589 / CAFC 909 upon first entry into Canada. You should have the form filled out in triplicate before your arrival, but DO NOT SIGN it until you are met by a Canada Border Services Officer, who will ask you to sign it at that time.
Please go to Non-resident section of the Canadian Firearms Program page of the RCMP website to print off the declaration form or phone them at 1-800-731-4000 for information concerning your firearm.
DO NOT attempt to bring any handguns into Canada.
