Montana Wilderness Elk Hunting
� Our two
tent camps for the Montana Elk Hunts in the Scapegoat Wilderness are 14 and 18
miles from Indian Meadows Trailhead, which is 60 miles Northwest of Helena,
Montana. Our Montana Elk Hunts are conducted in hunting area 280, which is one
of only three areas in the state that offer early season bugle hunts, starting
September 15th, with a rifle. That gives us a huge advantage during
the peak of the rut! Hunting area 280 has a brow-tine bull regulation and that
produces an excellent mature bull to cow ratio. Our elk numbers are above
Montana FWP objectives, this also enables our hunters to harvest a cow should
they desire. Most of our hunters choose the combination license on this hunt,
as we have some trophy mule deer and a creek full of cutthroat trout as well.
These Scapegoat Wilderness Hunts are limited to 6 hunters per hunt.
Days start
early in hunting camp, with guides and wranglers saddling horses and the
cook preparing a hearty family style breakfast. An early horseback ride out from camp
will put you in a prime hunting area before dawn. We generally spend the
day elk hunting on foot, ending up back at camp or at the pickup point where
the horses will be a welcome sight to carry you back to camp. If your preference
is for a more relaxed hunt, a short hike from camp is available and can
also be productive.
Now for the reward, a large hearty family
style dinner and the opportunity to give the details of the one you bagged
or the big 6x6 that got away. The accommodations in our
camp consist of an 18 X 24 cook tent, 14 X 17 sleeping tents, a shower tent, and
a tack and equipment tent. Each sleeping tent handles 3 to 4 people with cots
and foam pads, a wood stove, and plenty of room for personal gear. It is not
the Holiday Inn, but is really quite comfortable for all types of weather.
Meals are prepared by a full time cook and served family style in the cook tent
for breakfast and dinner, with daily sack lunches provided for each hunter. You
will enjoy hearty meals of roasts, ham, turkey, steaks and plenty of fresh baked
goodies.
We sincerely care about your Montana big game hunt and want
you to be totally satisfied with us. We can�t promise weather conditions, but
we prepare for your big game hunt with well qualified guides and cooks;
excellent equipment and horses. We will hunt from daylight to dark to help
secure your game and ensure you the best possibility of a successful and
enjoyable hunt. Come to the K Lazy Three with the outlook that you are going to
have a great time, meet some new friends, see some spectacular country and
experience some true wilderness big game hunting. In the end, it�s the hunt and
the comradely of the K Lazy Three you will remember long after the kill.
While Elk are the primary focus
in our Scapegoat camp, we also have some trophy level Mule Deer that can
be taken for those with a Combination Big Game license. For our primary Mule
Deer hunts, see our
Montana Mule Deer Hunting page for information on our
Deer Creek Mule Deer hunting camp.
