Premier Elk Hunts in Wyoming

Trophy Mountain Outfitters offers exceptional archery and rifle elk hunts from three pack-in wilderness camps deep in the stunning Gros Ventre Wilderness near Jackson Hole, Wyoming. For hunters seeking easier access, we also operate a drive-in tent camp at our trailhead in the Wyoming Range on the Bridger-Teton National Forest. With these diverse options, we’re able to tailor hunts to fit every hunter’s style and preference.

Flexible Hunting Seasons and Prime Elk Country

Our camps are located in two distinct elk hunting units, which allows us to offer two opening weeks for rifle season. The north camps kick off rifle hunts on September 26th, while the drive-in tent camp begins on October 15th. To protect the quality of the hunt, we limit each camp to hosting rifle hunters for no more than two weeks, ensuring fresh hunting areas and consistent opportunities.

Our archery season is split into two exciting weeks: September 7th–12th and September 15th–20th. These carefully chosen dates give hunters the best chance to experience bugling bulls and close encounters during the peak of the rut.

A Complete Wyoming Elk Hunting Experience

At Trophy Mountain Outfitters, we’re dedicated to delivering a world-class elk hunt. From our scenic wilderness camps and expertly guided hunts to our focus on sustainable practices that protect elk herds for generations to come, every detail is designed to give you a memorable adventure.

Whether you’re drawn to archery elk hunting or rifle elk hunting, we invite you to experience Wyoming elk hunting at its finest. (307) 248-8175 — give us a call today to start planning your next great hunt!

Trophy Mountain Pack in Wilderness Camp Elk Hunt

 

Option #1: Pack-In Wilderness Camp

Experience the thrill of a traditional pack-in wilderness horseback elk hunt with Trophy Mountain Outfitters. We operate three separate pack-in wilderness camps, giving you a truly authentic backcountry adventure in some of Wyoming’s best elk country.

Your hunt begins with a horseback ride from the trailhead into camp, typically lasting between 2½ and 3½ hours depending on the camp location. Once there, you’ll settle into a well-equipped camp featuring:

  • A dedicated cook and dining tent
  • Comfortable wall tents with cots, mattresses, lanterns, and wood-burning stoves

Rifle hunt dates for our pack-in camps:

  • September 26 – October 1
  • October 4 – 9

These hunts take place in a General Elk License area, making them an excellent option for hunters with Wyoming preference points looking for a classic wilderness hunt.

Option #2: Drive-In Tent Camp

Discover the convenience and excitement of our drive-in wall tent camp, set in the beautiful Wyoming Range Mountains. This is a classic horseback elk hunt where each day starts with a ride from camp or a quick drive to a nearby trailhead, leading into prime elk country for a full day of hunting.

Our drive-in camp has all the comfort and functionality of a well-equipped base camp, including spacious wall tents, hearty meals, and everything you need for a successful hunt—without the longer horseback trip required by our pack-in camps.

Rifle hunt dates for the drive-in tent camp:

  • October 15 – 20
  • October 23 – 28

These hunts also take place in a General Elk License area, making them a great fit for hunters with Wyoming preference points who want a slightly easier access option while still enjoying a true Western horseback hunting experience.
