It’s the little things that can make a big difference. Sleeping on our comfortable cots on summer roving trips, rather than pads on the ground, keeps you rested and energetic. We are committed to providing you with a friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff. We take extra precautions for your safety and enjoyment. Maybe most important is making your wilderness trip accomplish what you want. We truly appreciate your business and look forward to making new friends.
We focus on offering our guests an enriched adventure vacation by focusing on a quality western wilderness experience. Our horses and mules are well trained and we will match your riding experience to the appropriate riding animal. Our excellent equipment is well maintained and specially selected for your comfort and safety. We have specially designed it to be light in weight, which requires fewer pack animals, to protect the wilderness. Our staff is exceptional, well educated, friendly, customer-oriented and experienced. We want you to “come as strangers, and leave as friends”.
The shear diversity and beauty of the wildlife and landscape for a start. The spine of the Continental Divide runs from almost 60 miles within the Bob Marshall Wilderness Complex which is made up of the Great Bear, Scapegoat and the Bob Marshall Wilderness areas. The “Lewis Overthrust” is a huge escarpment d called the Chinese wall which extends for over 20 miles, and provides breathtaking scenery. Elevations in the complex range from 4000 to just over 9000 feet in elevation.
The rivers and streams of the Bob are nothing les that spectacular. To the north are the Middle and South Forks of the Flathead River. To the east are the North, West and South Forks of the Sun River. On the southern end of the complex is the North Fork of the Blackfoot River. Smaller streams and tributaries feed these major drainages throughout the “Bob”. Native wild Bull Trout and Cutthroat trout, along with Rainbow Trout make this an angler’s paradise.
No surprise is the native wildlife that is still found in this critical habitat. The grizzly bear still roams the mountains here as they have for eons of time and shares the landscape with the wolf. The Canada Lynx and Bobcat make their home here as well. High in the mountains are the Big Horn Sheep and Mountain Goats along with the wolverine and Pika. Spread throughout the “Bob” is Whitetail and Mule Deer. Elk and Moose are abundant throughout the area. Many forest carnivores such as Fisher, Marten and Weasels live in the timbered mountain slopes. The birds of the “Bob” to name a few include Eagles, falcons, hawks and owls. Grouse, woodpeckers, Steller’s Jays, Clark’s Nutcrackers, nuthatches, chickadees and many more can also be observed.
But what is the best of all is the big beautiful sky and the awesome starry nights. You really want to see all of this!

While almost every trip we take has great fishing opportunities, we have scheduled trips that focus on trophy wilderness fishing. We will be fishing waters that are teaming with trout and produce catch rates that will keep you busy all day! As Smoke Elser says, you have to hide behind a tree just to put your fly or lure on. The trips for 2018 leave on August 9, 2018 and August 20, 2018.
The August 9th trip is an 8 day 7 night fishing adventure to a blue ribbon fishing destination. August 20 is a 7 day, 6 night fishing adventure to an excellent fishing destination.
Don’t delay, these trips fill fast. If interested contact us using our electronic form or call us at 406-644-7889.
