Nunavut – Central Barren Ground Caribou & Musk Ox

Major airlines like Delta, United, Air Canada and WestJet fly into Winnipeg daily making this starting location very easy to get to. Baker Lake is accessible via scheduled airline from Winnipeg and this cost is also included in your package.

Baker Lake is where civilization ends and your adventure starts. This outfitter hunts where the animals are, moving constantly until all hunters are successful in the quest to harvest these amazing creatures. Although the hunt starts in Baker Lake, you will travel, if necessary, up to 80-100 miles on the water in search of the game you seek. Travel is done by big, sturdy boats that also have the ability to overnight. We will have smaller boats along to access the shore and also quads available to pursue game further inland or assist in the carry out of harvested game. Every aspect of this hunt is completely detailed and nothing left to chance. Late summer and early fall will find these magnificent animals near the lake, along the rivers and throughout the Baker Lake and Chesterfield Inlet area’s as they herd up for the annual rut.

Caribou can also be found in high numbers along these corridors as well. The animals in this area are of the Barren Ground sub species of Musk Ox. These animals are larger than their island cousins by about 10-15% in body and horn size. On average, well over 80% of Muskox taken by hunters with this outfitter will meet or exceed the Boone & Crockett minimum requirements.

This outfitter also hold the SCI #1 World Record Muskox that was taken on one of our fall hunts. The Caribou this outfitter hunts are of the Central Barren Ground species, and this area has 2 herds intermingling herds that travel many miles of land. This outfitter’s area is ideal habitat for caribou and muskox. This has led their hunters to enjoy a 100% success for the past 10 years. On average, well over 80% of the animals taken by hunters will meet or exceed the Boone & Crockett minimum score.
