2025 Hunt Dates at Cougar Creek Lodge in British Columbia

We believe we offer the best Cougar hunts in North America. Our cougars are larger than average, with Boone and Crocket record scores of 15 3/4". The existing world record was killed right on the other side of the river from our territory. This 10 day Hunt will give our hunters the opportunity to take the cat they want. The guides will take you out in a crew-cab 4x4 pickup or side by side until fresh tracks are spotted.  Then they will set the dogs with GPS.  We follow the dogs with snowmobiles and surround the cats, running them up a tree. Make sure to add a lynx tag to your hunt for an exceptional opportunity at both species during your hunt.

The bears grow large here in British Columbia. Our bears will square up to 7' and over. We have a salmon river, numerous logging cut blocks and ranches. The bears are well-fed on fish, berries, and the occasional hay bail. Most bears harvested are 5 1/2 to 6 1/2 foot. There are more bears in British Columbia than anywhere in North America, including Alaska (population estimated at 150,000).

September bear/deer combo hunts produce some of our best quality animals. The bears are feeding on the berries in the logging cut blocks and on the salmon in the rivers. The deer are still in their summer feeding pattern and are on the grass in the logging cut blocks, the alpine meadows and in the hay fields on some of the ranches on the front end of our territory.  The mule deer are Archery only.

A September Bear/Mule Deer/White Tail combo hunt produce some of our best quality animals. The bears are feeding on the berries in the logging cut blocks and on the salmon in the rivers. The deer are still in their summer feeding pattern and are on the grass in the logging cut blocks, the alpine meadows and in the hay fields on some of the ranches on the front end of our territory. 

Mid to late September is calling season, Oct 1 to 15 is prime rut and Oct 15 to 30 is post rut when the big bulls are on the move to find the last of the unbred cows. The bulls move into the winter range in November and make a good combo with deer during the prime muley rut. These hunts can be reserved for a $1,500 deposit plus license. Full 6 Days of hunting, all Meals and Room included.

We have recently received an increase in our Moose allocation from BC environment. The biologists have determined that our moose numbers are up. We have been doing an excellent job harvesting our bears over the past five seasons and saving many moose calves in the spring. Last season we harvested more mature bulls than any other previous season. We expect this trend to continue. There are more quality bucks than ever due to the week closure of the muley rut the past several years. This has given the species a chance to grow even larger.

White tail season is open September 10 to November 30. These bucks are scoring up in the 170 class. We see some of the largest moose on our territory at the end of the season. These hunts are normally $5,900 plus licenses and fees. 

We have taken some exceptional bucks in the last few seasons, some over 30 inches with B&C scores over 200. These hunts are normally $4,900 to $5,500 plus license.
