About this hunt
It’s true the California quail inhabit lower elevation valleys of California. They also can be found higher in altitude in the foothills and beyond. Think of briars and thick brush pockets intermixed with grassy openings. During optimal wet years the valley quail hatches can be insane. When cooperative they can hold tight for dogs and explode like bullets out of the briars. Usually combined with mountain quail, but also can effectively combine with squirrel, dove, and rabbit hunting. We use pointing dogs that are also trained to retrieve for quail hunts. Rate chart for upland hunting below. Price includes food and accommodations. These are some common trip lengths, as we offer trips of nearly any duration.
