Pack llamas as well as horses & mules have been our go to for accessing remote hunting camps in the backcountry for over 25 years. For the last 8 years we have used llamas exclusively and here is why:

Llamas solve a big problem for most back country enthusiast. If you are a backpack hunter looking to extend your distance away from access roads llamas are viable options. A friend of mine first introduced to llamas in 2013 said it best when telling his hunting buddies why he uses llamas: “More gear in, more meat out, longer hunting trips, and better food”.

Hunting remote areas in the fall months has always been a tradition as well as an adventure for us. At each years end the desire to return to the untamed is ever present. Llamas have allowed us to experience our backcountry adventures on a different level giving us the opportunity to go farther, stay longer and hike harder.

It doesn’t matter if you’re the hunter with a coveted limited entry tag in hand looking for the trophy of a lifetime or the hunter with a general season public land tag, the mindset is usually the same: remote area , low hunting pressure, good habitat, with lots of game. This has been a key to our success enjoyment. Llamas are the driving force behind these great experiences. We have come to trust, love and rely on our team of pack llamas and we can’t imagine hunting without them.
