Hunting

We operate our Archery, Muzzle Loading and Rifle elk hunts under special use permits issued to us by the USDA Forest Service in the White River National Forest and the Flat Tops Wilderness Area in game management unit 24.

We are the home of the world’s largest herd of migratory elk. This beautiful country contains all of the geographic features associated with prime Colorado elk hunting country. Elevations range from 8,000′ to 11,400′ across this terrain, covering the movement of the elk from their summer habitat to their winter ranges across the hunting seasons. Our hunts are conducted on the Big Ridge, East Marvine, and Main Marvine trails.

Elk hunting is the main attraction in the Flat Tops Wilderness and White River National Forest but contact us to discuss bear, moose or mule deer hunts.

Drop Camps: Our wilderness drop camps are situated in beautiful pine and aspen tree rimmed areas (areas that elk love!) and are accessed only by horseback. Our comfortable drop camps are fully furnished with everything you’ll need and will also include your pack in and out on horseback, camp checks, and game packing. You provide only food and beverage for your stay, a warm sleeping bag, your personal gear, and your hunting equipment.

$2,900 per person (1st Rifle Season)
$2,800 per person (2nd and 3rd Rifle Seasons)
$2,500 per person (Archery and Muzzle Seasons)

Guide Service: Our guides are passionate hunters who bring a wealth of experience and an intimate knowledge of the local terrain, the wildlife and their behaviors. Their expertise extends beyond the pursuit itself—they know the intricacies of the area like the back of their hands. From understanding the local geography to recognizing wildlife habitats and habits, our guides provide a comprehensive and immersive experience. Our guides are committed to sharing their expertise and will be offering limited day guide service for our drop camp clients.

$1,000 per person, per day
Contact us for availability and options.

Gear Drops:  Are you more of a Do It Yourself type of hunter?  Or do you have your usual spot but don’t want to lug that heavy gear up the mountain?  We offer options for gear drop service within our permitted area.  You provide all your own gear and we’ll do the packing for you.  This service is limited during the Rifle Hunting seasons.  Please contact us for options, pricing and availability.

Game Packing: Experienced packers are available with our pack string to bring out your game.  You will need to field dress and quarter the animal. We charge extra for animals outside our local area (our corral at the Marvine Trailhead) or if we need to field dress, quarter or skin your animal. We are permitted to pack game in White River National Forest (Blanco District), Flat Tops Wilderness, Jensen State Wildlife Area, and Oak Ridge State Wildlife Area.

Pricing starts at $450, please call for quote.

References are available upon request.

Terms of Services: Signed contracts, waivers and a 50% deposit are required to reserve a hunt. For Archery, Muzzle Loading and 1st Rifle seasons which are contingent on a license draw, a 25% deposit per hunter is due at the time of booking to reserve your hunt. Once you draw your license, the remaining deposit will be due June 15th. If you do not draw, the 25% deposit will be held to reserve your hunt for the following year or to book an alternate hunt with us during another time frame or one of our summer excursions, when available.

Balances are due upon arrival to Sable Mountain Outfitters via cashier’s check, money order, cash, or credit card. Deposits are nonrefundable and no refunds or credits shall be given for late arrivals or early departures. The cost of hunting licenses and application processing fees are not included in Sable Mountain Outfitters’ prices.
