Moose Hunting with Big Sand takes place late every September. Upon arrival from Thompson, Manitoba, Guests are brought to the Main Lodge where they will sight in their rifles and have a brief lunch before they jump on the Float Plane for the trip to their Moose Hunting Outpost Camp. In this vast wilderness (Big Sand has the largest Moose Hunting Territory that is exclusive to any one operator in all of Canada) you will commence your hunt for this the largest member of the Deer Family. A Bull Moose in full spread of antlers is the most imposing beast in North America. It stands taller at the shoulder than the largest saddle horse.

When asked if there is concern about depleting the healthy gene pool of trophy bulls, Rick is quick to respond, “That’s a concern you have to address and we have by spreading out our hunters, taking them into areas that have never been hunted before. Rather than take 5 bulls from 1 area, we’ve taken 5 bulls from 5 different areas. Our situation is unique as we spread our hunters between Big Sand Lake and our outpost lakes and by doing this we ensure a healthy balance and in nature balance is everything. We have Outpost and Tent Camps that we will not use for several years. We don’t get our phenomenal success rate by not managing our resource properly. The fact that there are NO other Lodges or hunters in the area is a huge factor is keeping a large supply of Trophy animals.”

The Moose hunting experience with Big Sand offers hunters the two most sought after moments in time. The first being the actual hunt, the stalking, the tracking and the calling. Nothing fuels the adrenaline like a 1700lb bull ploughing through the bush towards you until that moment you both meet. Secondly it’s the land, the topography and the rugged landscape of the Canadian Subarctic that sets a scene and infuses a memory on one’s soul like none other. A place you didn’t know still existed and that your next step is truly a first step taken by any man before.
