Guided Hunts in BC’s East Kootenay Mountains with Sawtooth Outfitters
Experience the adventure of a lifetime with a guided trophy hunt in the rugged East Kootenay region of British Columbia.
Who We Are
At Sawtooth Outfitters, we offer unforgettable guided trophy hunts in one of North America’s most beautiful and diverse wilderness regions. With exclusive rights to over 340,000 acres of prime hunting ground, we deliver high-success hunts for 14 species — from elk and moose to mountain goat and predators.
We keep it personal, never overcrowded. Our small-scale, high-quality approach means every hunter gets the attention and opportunity they deserve.
Our Hunting Territory
Our exclusive territory spans alpine meadows, deep valleys, glaciers, and untouched wilderness—including a 22,000-acre alpine park and land bordering the 500,000-acre Purcell Wilderness Conservancy.
We operate out of two main lodges and multiple backcountry cabins, with camps set up to match the terrain and game species you’re pursuing. From horseback hunts in alpine basins to glassing river valleys for moose, this is as real as hunting gets.

What Sets Us Apart
Two Territories, Tailored to Your Hunt
We operate across two distinct territories to suit different hunting styles and goals:
- Prefer a physically demanding hunt with a chance at massive bulls? We’ve got it.
- Looking for more horseback hunting or easier access? We’ve got that too.
Whether you’re after elk in alpine valleys or predator hunts in winter range, our flexibility gives you an edge.
Low Pressure, High Success
We only take a limited number of hunters each season to maintain a high-quality, low-pressure hunting experience. That means better odds, bigger animals, and more personalized guiding.
One of the Most Diverse Game Regions on Earth
The East Kootenay region is often ranked just behind the African plains for its concentration and diversity of big game.
Easy to Reach — But Wild as It Gets
Despite the remote wilderness feel, we’re located just an hour from an international airport and the U.S. border. From the moment you arrive, you’re surrounded by mountains, rivers, and untamed country — the perfect setting for the hunt of a lifetime.
