Hi,

 

MyQuebecuncle has now been dreaming for several years to come hunting big games (mostly elk or mountain goats) in B.C. orAlberta. Where to start to help make his dream a reality?

 

Here’s a few questions:

 

-          When are the hunting seasons for elk and mountain goat?

-          Which permits would he need?

-          How much it would cost overall for not being a BC resident?

-          Is there any existing exchange programs between interprovincial outifitters or outifitter associations to facilitate hunting exchanges and reduce costs both ways?

 

My uncle is running a small scale black bear, moose and fishing outifiting business inQuebecand would be more than happy to find a BC exchange partner in the months or years to come.

 

Thank you for your help.

He also hunts regularly Cariboo in northern Quebec.

 

90% bow-and-arrow hunting.

Hello Ulap,

Thanks for your inquiry.  I believe your uncle would have to contact outfitters directly to arrange some sort of "trade hunt" if that's what he wanted to do?

In BC there is a "Hunter Host" program and if you have a BC sponsor (they might have to be family) then you can apply and hunt with them.

Goat and Caribou are both species that I think are available.
