Reviewer Comments: Chrtis Widrig guided me personally and it was a great experience. Chris is the "real deal"as the saying goes.He has over 30 years experience and a bush pilot and guide in the Canadian wilderness. He has survived a grizzly bear attack and still has no reservations about guiding in bear country. I took a 37-1/4 broomed dallram and a very nice mountain caribou on this hunt.It is true wilderness country, located 137miles fromthe nearest road. First rate people all the way.Chris'wife, Joanne, is a great cook!

Reviewer Comments: This was my 2nd hunt with Chris If you are looking for a classic wilderness pack train hunt in some of the most awsome country in the world and don't mind a little horse back riding you can't go wrong with Chris. I took a 13 year old broomed ram on the 8th day of our hunt saw good rams every day and lots of big caribou also. If I choose to I could have taken Griz.My guide Jamis and wrangler cook, Andrew:aka Jack Pine Savage were 1st class.

Reviewer Comments: We hunted with Chris in 2003. That year he was 15 for 16 on moose with 10 scoring above 200" B&C. I shot a 61 1/2" moose that scored 224", my brother shot a 60 1/2" moose. We saw a lot of game, the country was absolutely beautiful.

Reviewer Comments: Awesome country. Very remote. Shot a 58" bull early in the hunt. Hunters were 5 for 5. Mine was smallest shot. Horseback hunt. Good horses. Seeing the area is worth the hunt price alone. Won't be disapointed.

New Mexico Hunting Information
New Mexico is one of the top destinations for trophy Elk and Antelope hunting. Draw odds can be tough depending on the unit but landowner tags are also available for those who don't draw. Mule Deer are plentiful but generally of average size. Only a couple of units and reservations consistently produce big muleys.
Yukon Territory Hunting Information
The Yukon Territory is a legendary hunting destination. Hunters from all over the world travel to the Yukon for wilderness adventure hunting at its finest. This rugged, remote and beautiful province is nearly untouched by man. It is similar in size to the state of California but with a population of only about 30,000 residents. The Yukon is a vast, pristine wilderness that holds a tremendous variety of trophy game species. You should be in excellent physical condition to maximize your success and to enjoy the Yukon experience.
Ontario Hunting Information
Ontario is often considered a sportsman's paradise. This large province contains huge sections of wilderness, filled with thousands of lakes that provide excellent habitat for Canada moose and black bear. Excellent fishing for walleye, northern pike, muskie, smallmouth bass and other species can often be combined with a hunt. From spike camps to 5-star lodges, there are lodges, guides and outfitters for every adventure and every taste.
