mountain lion hunts

During a mountain lion hunt, expect an early start and a physically demanding day. The hounds will pick up the scent of a lion and lead the way through rugged terrain. Once the lion is treed or cornered, you will have the opportunity to take a shot. Our guides will be with you throughout the hunt, providing expertise and ensuring safety.
