Obtaining Idaho hunting license and tags is the responsibility of each individual hunter. Proof of license and tags will be required at time of booking and with deposit payment. Please note that certain zones in our operating areas have restrictions on game species to be harvested. This information can be obtained at the Idaho Department of Fish and Game and by contacting Ron Grove.
With habitat ranging from wind swept rocky peaks to lush river front forests the area by Oswold Pack Camp outfitters has been renowned as a premier destination for hunting. We offer fully guided pack trips, semi-guided outings, and drop camps to fit a range of budgets. Typically we suggest a 3 day trip, which ends up being a 5 day trip when you count your arrival and departure dates. The trips include a day of packing in and a day of packing out with one full day at the drop camp. If you would like more days at the drop camp that is easily accommodated. We can accommodate groups of 2-8 people, but prefer a minimum of 4 if possible.
Hunting seasons and eligible species for harvest are as follows:
Spring provides a unique opportunity to harvest spring black bear. These hunts are generally 5 days and are operated out of Basecamp with guides taking hunters to established bait stations. The fees associated with this hunt includes an opportunity to harvest 1 bear. If additional bear are harvested a fee of $750 per bear will be included in total cost. It is the responsibility of the hunter to obtain the appropriate number of bear tags.
Fall hunting season is by far the most popular and renowned for the big game enthusiasts. Opportunities to harvest bull elk, white tail, mule deer and black bear abound. Elk Tags to be obtained are for Lolo Zone 10 and 12. It is advised to contact Ron Grove with Oswold Pack Camp prior to purchasing licenses and tags.
