Alberta Elk Hunting

Alberta Bush Adventures has purchased a limited quantity of Elk Allocations. These allocations were made possible because of the ever growing Elk population in our area of WMU 523. This provides Alberta Bush Adventures with an excellent opportunity to offer some very good Elk hunts from our Peace River camp. This area is on the fringe of wilderness and agriculture. This provides excellent habitat for Elk, as the agriculture provides high protein feed and the surrounding boreal forest provides natural feed, as well as, great cover & bedding areas. Alberta Bush Adventures can offer very good archery hunts starting in late August. This is when the Elk are vulnerable as they are fat & lazy from the previous summer, as well as, the beginning of the Elk rut. We can also offer rifle hunts starting mid-September.

We feature guided horseback hunting for Elk, Mule Deer, Whitetail Deer, Shiras Moose, and Black Bear. Our ranch is 50 miles southwest of Calgary, Alberta, Canada and our hunting territory starts in the Alberta foothills, on the edge of the ranch, and goes west and south to the Continental Divide which makes up the Alberta / British Columbia border in the Canadian Rockies. This area roughly comprises about 1200 square miles of hunting area, all very mountainous and prime habitats for Deer, Elk, Moose and Black Bear.

We have a short pre-rut bow season running from September 1st until September 16th. This is an awesome hunt with generally very good chances at 300” + bulls. Chances of encountering other hunters are slim and generally we have over 800 sq. miles to hunt in. We take only 4-6 hunters during this time and usually suggest two on one hunts as more than one bull is generally called in at a setup. Our success rate has been very high rivaling that of our rifle hunters. Alberta’s rifle season opens on September 17th which makes this one of very few places where elk can still be hunted during the rut with a rifle. This early season hunt has been very much in demand over the past few years and may be a prime reason for Blue Bronna achieving a 80-90% shot taken rate with greater than 70% take home rate. We ask hunters not to shoot less than a 5 pt. bull as small bulls are easy to call in and we generally can find a better bull during the course of a hunt.

Our Alberta elk bowhunts take place in the foothills of Southern Alberta. This beautiful ranching country is made up of timbered ridges, rolling aspen and poplar hills, lush meadow and hay fields. The areas we hunt are a combination of private and public ground which have a very strong elk population. Little resident hunting pressure allows us to provide an exciting elk bowhunting experience. We run our elk bowhunts during the rut from the middle of September to the first of October. Elk bowhunting during the rut allows us to bugle in bulls to within 40 yards. Our experienced guides, using numerous proven calling methods and decoys, present our hunters with almost daily opportunities. There is nothing as adrenaline filled and action packed as the close interactions had during our elk bowhunts.

There is a large population of elk in the Peace River region of Alberta, Canada. Here you get the rare opportunity to elk hunt during the peak of the rut. These rifle elk hunts are done in a mix of public and private land on the farmland fringe using calling and spot and stalk tactics. You will have a great chance to get a mature, heavy 5 or 6 point bull scoring 250 to 300+. The hunting pressure is relatively low in most of our elk hunting areas. The elk are generally not difficult to locate as they can be very vocal. On good weather days, you may hear multiple bugling bulls. Occasionally even the bigger herd bulls will come charging into a bugle, giving the hunter a close shot. Our rifle elk hunts take place from September 17 to the 30th as a 6 day elk only hunt. We own the only 6 outfitter rifle elk tags in our zone. Your chance for success on our elk hunts is greatly improved by being physically fit. Even though we kill some elk in the farm fields, being able to hike the steep Peace River Valley or chase a rutting elk is a huge asset.

Elk are awesome, the most majestic of the deer species, and in my opinion the most exciting and challenging hunt you can go on. If you have ever heard an elk bugle you know what I’m talking about and if you haven’t your missing out. In our area we have elk in the 260”-350” class and are restricted to 3 or 6 points or larger depending on zones to increase the age structure of our ever expanding herds. Elk hunts are conducted using tree stands, stalking and calling during rut. “NEW JET BOAT HUNT NOW AVAILABLE”.

Elk are, without a doubt, the most majestic animal in the North American big game deer family and Alberta offers some of the finest elk hunting available anywhere. With Trophy Hunters Alberta, you can hunt Alberta for elk throughout the forested area leading into the eastern slopes of the Canadian Rockies and throughout the rolling foothills region in southern Alberta.

Elk are generally in herds this time of year giving hunters a unique chance to look over several bulls before deciding which one to take. Bulls that have been rutting hard are searching for food to replenish their fat for the winter. We will hunt near their bedding zone, favorite feeding locations, and any water stops where a bull may fill up. Once we have located your trophy elk, it’s a matter of gaining ground and eventually pulling ahead for an ambush. These hunts are on a limited basis and are for 6 days. (additional days can be added)
