We usually have plenty of snow on the ground by the end of the deer season. This makes for a great opportunity to combine your deer hunt with a mountain lion hunt. If we have the
snow, which is realistic, we can start our lion hunt right after the deer season ends on Nov. 24th. chances are good that we had already spotted several lion tracks and are keeping a watchful eye on their movements. The hound-hunting season runs from Nov. 25th to the end of March. Lion hunts are 7 days long and cost $4000. Non-resident licenses run $154.75 and a mountain lion tag is $186.00.

These hunts really depend on snow conditions so flexibility in scheduling dates is a must. But hunting over hounds is a unique experience and one that won't soon be forgotten. Plus, our success rate with good conditions has been 100% for as long as I can remember. The icing on the cake is that we have probably taken more record book lions than anyone in the last fifteen years.
