SUMMARY
REMARKS |
 |
| Problems
of Hunt: |
Too much heat for moose hunt. It made that the animals not move and did not come to our call and so the hunt was difficult. Fortunately game population was abundant. |
| Highlights
of Hunt: |
Besides hunting in the fabolous Mackenzie Mountains, all the organization was perfect. My very experienced guide was a key for the succesful hunt and having a helicopter to move between the diferent areas is a must. |
| Equipment
Recommendations: |
If you contract a "mixed bag hunt" as I did, take different layers for mountain and valley hunts. Nevertheless, for crossing rivers, the outfitter provides you with waders. |

Condition Comments: |
Great hunt and had good weather as well. Saw five grizzleys on the hunt and almost everyone was plagued with bear problems. The first day my guide and I had a sow and two large cubs come at us and approached within 30 yards until we finally convinced them they should leave! Other hunters in base camp took some excellent sheep with some over 40 inches. |

SUMMARY
REMARKS |
 |
| Problems
of Hunt: |
|
| Highlights
of Hunt: |
Saw lots of grizzly bears. Five in total during the hunt. Too bad the NWT doesn't allow non-resident hunters to harvest one. Even the residents are allowed one in their lifetime. |
| Equipment
Recommendations: |
I wore Danner boots, Sitka Gear clothing, used an Eberlestock pack which was very useful as a day bag. As well as a walking stick was helpful. We walked an estimated 70-80 KM's and all gear worked perfectly. |

 |
|
As with all hunts you have the opportunity to meet new people. Aside from harvesting a great ram on my hunt, making new friends with other hunters from other parts of the world was a great experience. There were other hunters in camp who filled all their tags including wolverine so it's right place and right time. I would like to go back but later in the season for caribou and moose.

SUMMARY
REMARKS |
 |
| Problems
of Hunt: |
I twisted my knee early in the hunt. |
| Highlights
of Hunt: |
Meeting my friends Eduardo, Randy and Mike. Harvesting my ram and hunting with Werner, Sunny and Russ. |
| Equipment
Recommendations: |
I wore Russell sheep hunting boots (performed well). Good raingear and plenty of bug dope. |
| Would You
Recommend This Hunt to a Friend? |
Yes |
| Why? |
I have been on many hunts for whitetail in Saskatchewan and other places as well as an unsuccessful sheep hunt in Alaska. Despite not getting a ram in Alaska the hunt was well run however the hunt with South Nahanni was as first class as I could have wished for. This is a well run operation that cares about you insuring you enjoy your hunt and achieve success. |

SUMMARY
REMARKS |
 |
| Problems
of Hunt: |
None, but it took nine days to get ram after I missed a shot in day number four. |
| Highlights
of Hunt: |
Beautiful country without any people. |
| Equipment
Recommendations: |
Good mountain climbing boots as you will use them. |
| Would You
Recommend This Hunt to a Friend? |
Yes |
| Why? |
This is a fantastic trip. The outfitter legally uses a helicopter to place or relocate hunters to good areas and saves enormous amounts of time going between hunt areas. The aircraft is not used for spotting. There are lots of steep hills and climbing required. The outfitter focused on the hunter success and opportunity. |

The outfitter has an incredible base camp with hot water, showers, TV, freezer, microwave and excellent food.
I took this full curl ram after nine hard days of hunting many bands of rams. We stalked this ram for hours and laid in the ground face-down in the rain waiting for the right moment. Finally, we got a chance and my 274 yard shot rang true and this fine ram was mine, 10 1/2 years old.
Avery Shepard is an excellent guide and outfitter Kevin Mattice is also great. They go the extra mile and will be at SCI book in 2001.

Condition Comments: |
The outfitter flies the hunters in areas where the game are. The flying is done with helicopters. The outfitter spends a high amount of hours to search the game by plane. This is a very well running outfit in a really remote area. The hunt is done in real wilderness and unspoiled area. The use of two helicopters in camp helps to put the hunter on the righ spot and also helps to carry out the trohies and meat. I saw a lot of very good dall sheep rams (full curls). This is a very good sheep, moose and caribou area. |
