Deer Hunting - Oct 2-13, 2010
The Wallowa Mountains of Northeast Oregon have long been known for their exceptional deer and elk hunting. Falling almost entirely within the Eagle Cap Wilderness, these mountains have been home to many record book animals. Wilderness means no roads and less hunter pressure and therefore better hunting.We offer Drop Camp hunts, Supplied Camp hunts, Guided Hunts and Deluxe Camps. Camps are an average of 3-8 miles into the wilderness. These are 7-day hunts. For information about our Deluxe Camps (Cook, Wrangler, etc.) visit Deluxe Hunt
We hunt in the Minam, Catherine Creek, Pine Creek, Keating, Snake and Imnaha units and all Deer hunts are draw hunts. The application deadline for all draw hunts is May 15th.
Non-resident guaranteed tags are available on first come, first serve basis and are priced at $700.00 for license and tag. Tags must be purchased by March 15 accompanied by necessary information.
