MOBILITY IS VERY IMPORTANT

HUNTING

Caribou
Caribou Hunting
The caribou hunted in Labrador belong to the largest herd in the world - The George River Herd - numbering approximately 700,000 animals. Our American Plan package includes three days of Hunting in the care of our professional guides. Acceptable methods of hunting include Rifle ( 243 caliber minimum ), Bow (45 lb. at peak of draw minimum ) and black powder. Combination Rifle and Bow hunts are also acceptable. Ptarmigan is also included in our winter hunts.

We have been very successful in maintaining a 100% Success Rate On Two Caribou Per Hunter.

"GUARANTEED TO SEE CARIBOU"


LARGE NUMBERS OF CARIBOU DURING THE WINTER HUNT TO CHOOSE FROM
We have maintained a 100% success rate on two caribou per hunter during our winter hunts. This is made possible due to the large number of caribou that historically winter in our hunting areas year after year without fail.
