Not Your Typical Drop Camp

Big Timber Outfitter’s self-guided archery elk camps are NOT LIKE traditional drop camps offered on the market today. Instead, we offer much more, such as pre-scouting the area, setting up a complete drop camp close to elk and less than 1 mile from awesome wallows and meadows, and stocking your site with everything you need to ensure an enjoyable hunt, such as cots, lanterns, and a wood stove. A kitchen tent is also provided lanterns, firewood, cooking utensils, and plenty of food (we cannot purchase alcohol, but if you buy it, we will pack it).

For the DIY hunter who doesn't want to bring their own gear. Our Primitive camps are placed where we have pre scouted. All Usfs rules apply in placing and moving them shall apply.

These hunts are 8 days, 1 day in, (non hunting day), 6 days of hunting and 1 day out.

All hunters must have inreach device. Our tents are wall tents, with a dirt floor, a cot, with either a jet boil with cylinders or a 2 burner stove with propane. (Wood stoves comply with usfs rules due to fire closures yr to yr).
