Castle Creek Outfitters. The place to go.
What an experience! A great hunt. Kelly,Jenifer,Tello and Tia are wonderful hosts. Pushed me to the max. Passed my stress test many times. A genuine, wall tent, wilderness hunt. If you are a fat old man, looking for a 50 yard shot at an elk tied to a tree, go to a "game farm". If you are looking for the real deal, this is it. I now have "rugged elk hunt" bragging rights.
Loved every bit of it. Wish we had shot an elk, but it's about hunting. Not about shooting.
It was the most amazing hunt that I have experienced in my interest life food was great accommodation was great people where above and beyond expectations
All of it there was nothing bad about the hunt it was everything I would expect it to be and it exceeded my expectations
