Hunting in the Zirkel Wilderness

This is a first-class fully-guided tent camp in the Zirkel wilderness area. Our tent camps are reserved sites assigned by the United States Forest Service set in game-rich primitive areas. Our camps are comfortable and provide the necessary amenities while maintaining the integrity of the wilderness setting. Hunting from this camp is by horseback and foot only - there is no motorized traffic in these wilderness areas.

One guide is provided for every two hunters. Delicious home-style meals (meat, potato, veggies, and dessert) are prepared by our professional camp cooks. These are 7-day trips with 5 full days of hunting. Your harvested game will be packed out to the base camp or off the mountain when your hunt is over. Our guides are experienced and very knowledgeable of the area.

Upon arrival at SLO you will be briefed on horse safety, the hunting area, SLO policy and the importance of preserving our natural resources and primitive wilderness for future generations. Upon arrival at the drop camp, hunters will again be briefed by the guides on the hunting area, safety, and the practice of low impact camping.
