The Ultimate Hunting Experience
SNO Big4 Hunt
Our 12-day SNO Big4 Hunt is the ultimate in South Nahanni hunting and designed for the true mixed bag hunter who aims at taking between 3 and 5 trophies. Dall sheep, Alaska-Yukon moose, mountain caribou and mountain goat, also wolf, wolverine and black bear — with us, you can experience all of this according to your individual arrangements.
The Spot
The Mackenzie Mountains of Canada’s Northwest Territories are world renowned for their successful, remote hunts. Each outfitter operates within the safe boundaries of their own concession. There are no roads, no people, no towns, no trace of humans, just space to follow game trails, which have scribbled their lines over the mountains for thousands of years.
South Nahanni’s 9,000 square miles are so vast it swallows Yellowstone National Park twice and more; larger than a small European country like Slovenia. Our own helicopter makes non-hunting time fast and efficient
shuttling you throughout the huge concession. This selective access leaves recently hunted game populations to renew themselves, resulting in successful hunts with an opportunity rate of 100%. Well organized logistics and hardworking guides with an understanding of the land and game are paramount to our success.
All our hunts are spot and stalk, and certainly FAIR CHASE. Hunting from the helicopter, with the helicopter or just disembarked from the helicopter is not possible in South Nahanni. Hunting is allowed to commence 12 hours after landing.
You will camp in small backpacker tents and hunt with day gear only (e.g. rain gear, water bottle). If your camp has to be moved your guide will contact base camp on his satellite messenger for a helicopter shuttle. Camping spots are determined by water sources, landing possibilities for the helicopter and the availability of game.
Be prepared to hike up and down mountains, glass, stalk, and scramble over rocks. Moderate to steep terrain should be expected on all mountain sheep hunts. This is a highly physical hunt.
