Reviewer Comments: Barry Taylor can walk on water. I've watched him do it. Seriously, am in the process of hunting my way across the top of Canada. Have done this for six years. At this time, Barry's camp and hunting experience far outshadows every other camp I've been in. I will be back, even if they drop the Caribou quotas.

Reviewer Comments: It was my husband and my first trip to the NWT, and a wonderful experience. The accommodation is warm and safe from predators. The guides and Barry Talyor are all very knowlegable and experienced. They are all willing to go the extra mile for the client. We saw 1000s of caribou as well as wolf, grizzly and ptarmigan. All clients tagged out with some excellent bulls. The fishing was great. The food was plentiful and top notch. All in all an excellent adventure and I would be very happy to return to Barry's camp.

Reviewer Comments: This was the 3rd hunt in the past four years that my wife and I have made at Arctic Safaris with Barry Taylor. This was an excellent hunt as the previous two were. Facilities are 1st class, food was great, guides all go the extra mile and Barry continues to have a top notch camp. Plenty of quality animals to hunt, very good fishing around the camp and on our last day the caribou were seen in unbelievable numbers. Would highly recommend Barry and would be glad to provide more detailed information.

Reviewer Comments: Barry runs a great camp. Everyone involved works hard to make your hunt all it can be. All hunters tagged out and were very satisfied with every aspect of the hunt. If you want a Central Barren Ground bou' I'd go with Barry.

Reviewer Comments: My wife and I hunted with Barry in September 1998 and 1999. Both hunts were first class - in quantity of game, accomodations, food, etc. The staff was excellent and everyone worked extremely hard for the clients. Accomodations are steel grain bins - comfortable and extremely safe from Barrenground Grizzlies. Will definitely hunt with Arctic Safaris for more years in the future. Many Boone & Crockett bulls each week and good fishing in lake.

Manitoba Hunting Information
Manitoba is known as a top destination for avid waterfowl hunters. Huge flocks of ducks and geese can be found from the Arctic coast of Hudson Bay to the prairie potholes on the southern border of this Canadian province. There is no legal requirement for non-resident waterfowl hunters to use a guide, but many are available and a high percentage of non-Canadian hunters utilize them. In addition black bear, Canada moose and whitetails are hunted throughout the province.
Utah Hunting Information
Utah has recently been outstanding for trophy elk, but the best tags take many years to draw. Utah does have conservation tags available for purchase that allow hunters to bypass the drawing. Given the high demand for these premium tags prices can be high. In the past Utah has been a top trophy mule deer state but recently only a handful of units consistently produce B&C caliber deer.
Wyoming Hunting Information
Wyoming is a great state for hunters! It offers a wide variety of good big game, turkey, small game, upland and predator hunting.
