We hunt Cougar ( aka Mountain Lion) from November to May. We use 4-wheel drive pickups, snowmobiles, ATV's, and horses to follow the cats depending upon conditions.
A Mountain Lion hunt with hounds can sometimes become a physical fitness test. We recommend anyone interested in a hound hunt to be in excellent physical condition. There is nothing more frustrating for a hunter than to lack the stamina to make the entire run. For those wishing to pursue this hunt, you are in for a very exciting time.
Utah has a Conservation Tag program. Conservation Tags are 100% tax deductible for the buyer. This conservation money is used on wildlife projects here in Utah. It is money well spent for wildlife and habitat. These tags allow us to hunt the premium areas without waiting to draw a tag. We can assist you in purchasing these tags and help you apply for the big game drawings.
