Mountain Lion

While none of our hunts are guaranteed, our mountain lion hunters are usually always successful. We have an excellent population of lions in Arizona.With Nathan Ellison in Southern Arizona you will have an outstanding hunt for lions. His hounds are professionals at treeing Mountain Lions. Our goal is to take a mature tom, but we do occasionally tree a good female. On the Southern Arizona hunt with Nathan expect to ride hard on this hunt, as you ride through some of Arizona's most rugged and beautiful Lion country. This hunt is on dry ground. Fee's range from $3,000 to $4,000. This is a 7 day hunt and tags are available over the counter with the season on lion year 'round. We prefer to hunt late fall through April when their pelts are at prime. I have known Nathan for a long time and I'm pleased to send lion hunts his way, he has run his own outfitting business for over 50 years and I consider him to be the best lion guide in the state.

Black Bear Hunt
Arizona is ranked 5th in the nation
for large black bears.

Our hunts for Fall Black Bears in in the Tonto National Forest and the Sierra Ancha Wilderness. On this hunt you will get to see some of the most rugged and beautiful country Arizona has to offer. You will also get to see some Ancient Indian Ruins. We like to call this hunt "Bears in the Pears" as they feed on the fruit of the Prickly Pear cactus in the high desert. This can be alot of fun since you will have a chance to see many bears at once. This hunt occurs in early September when the prickly pear cactus is producing it's fruit, and the bears love it. There is nothing quite like hunting "Bears in the Pears". Fall Bear tags are available over the counter. If interested in one of these fall bear hunts for Bears in the Pears, Please Book Early. Usually we are booked on this hunt 6 months in advance as tags are over the counter and its a very popular hunt, check with us though as sometimes we have cancellations. This is also a good time to consider a Combo Hunt as Archery Deer tags are available over the counter. See the Rates page for a complete listing of prices.
