OUr mission
At Under The Sun Outfitters, we offer an experience and service that is unique from many other outfitters. The vision and objective of our operation is to offer an immersive hunting experience with each hunter’s unique goals in mind, while keeping the future of our elk herds and their habitat healthy.
Go afield with a good attitude, with respect for the wildlife you hunt and for the forest and fields in which you walk. Immerse yourself in the outdoor experience. It will cleanse your soul and make you a better person. —Fred Bear
Our Elk Hunts
We are currently offering Unit 4 private land archery and rifle hunts for 2025. These guided hunts are 5 days long and are 1x1 and 2x1 (1 hunter with one guide, or 2 hunters with 1 guide). Your guide will work hard to share his/her local knowledge, as well as their expertise of hunting and calling. Your guide will be responsible for transportation while on private land, retrieval, field dressing and delivering your elk to the game processor. At the end of your hunt, you will leave with greater understanding of elk and their habitat, meat for your table and as a part of our Under the Sun family.
Under the Sun Outfitters conducts fully guided elk hunts beginning with archery in September and rifle in October and November annually.
