3 Northern British Columbia Hunting ground: The hunting ground in northern British Columbia is located 2 hours from Whitehorse. The only access is via seaplane or boat. Glaciers have shaped the striking coastal mountains. The rough country with numerous lakes and streams offer a dreamlike atmosphere for hunting.

When hunting Mountain Goats and Stone Sheep it is possible that you will be accommodated in a spike camp for several nights. Hunting: The hunting season in northern areas starts with the spring hunting of Black Bears. During this time, there is a possibility to hunt Wolves. The beginning of the hunt depends on the melting of snow. Experience has shown that at the end of May, and beginning of June the lake can be traveled by boat. From August 1 st, Mountain Goat and Stone Sheep can be hunted. On August 15 th, hunts start on Moose and Caribou. Except Moose, all other hunting seasons closed on October 15 th. Depending on the type of hunted species, the hunt takes 8 or 12 days. In general, the hunts are hunt guidance 1:1. Besides boats, ATV s are also used for transportation
