I've searched the forums, but thought I'd just see what you guys thought. I went with the LRH group to WY this past fall and I'm hooked on the backcountry. I don't have any points for Wyoming for next year, but want to go somewhere. I've been leaning towards archery, but I'm open to anything. I don't have to harvest a trophy, but would like to know there's a chance. I'm looking for good odds, backcountry on horses. Nothing fancy. Looks like Colorado may be my best bet of state, but I've never actually talked with anyone that's used a guide there or has experience with a particular area or outfit. Any help or direction is appreciated.

I've considered everywhere. Really looking for advise on a guided horse trip with people that have actually been. I've only been with NTO in WY and I could tell someone exactly what to expect with those guys. However, I've heard so many horror stories, I just don't want to go out and spend that kind of time and money for a dud of a hunt.

Black Mountain Outfitters, Emigrant MT.. Scott and Sandy Sallee. Awesome back country Hunt in MT that is on the northern border of Yellowstone.
Been 3 times, doubtful if I will go elsewhere for a quality hunt as this.

Sorry. I thought you were looking for DIY. I can't make any outfitter recommendations.

If you're looking at guide, this year, no draw, don't leave out the provinces.

How was your NTO experience? Likes, any dislikes, did you harvest, etc?
That may provide responders with a better sense of what you are looking for.

Loved NTO. Backcountry Hunt out of drop tents. On horse everyday for hours. Had a chance to shoot a 5pt almost every day, but guide was patient while we were chasing a monster. Ended up taking a 4pt on the last evening. Awesome hunt and experience.
