Hoping I might have seen something at the sportsmans show but did not.

Looking for any recommendations for a pack in/out camp in the Selway A area (16A,17, 19, 20).

This will be my first Idaho hunt and I will be solo.  Thinking that spending the money on getting a good base camp might be worth it.
2MANY:
Solo Selway!?
I would recommend calling one of the guides.
WapitiTalk1:
Kool-aid, I agree with 2MANY. That is BIG country. Maybe dig around and find another hunter who drew that tag and link up for a drop hunt if you’re not keen on a straight outfitter hunt.
mburrows:
Just being completely honest here.  This is one of the most challenging hunts you can do, not just from a physicality stand point but there is not a ton of game around in the Selway. There is reason its an extremely easy tag to get. If youre in it for the adventure then thats great and youll have a blast, but success rates on Selway tags are dismal. If it was me and hunt quality is a bigger priority than adventure, I would be looking for other tag options. If you have the money to spend look at some of the outfitter tag options in Idaho.  :twocents:
Kool-aid:
This is going to be a difficult hunt...100% get that.  It wasn't my desired unit...but it is what it is at this point...tag purchased and I'm going for the experience with hopes of finding success.

Figured there will be people with a lot more experience than I have in this area on the forum...I'm open to guide recommendations as well.

I can google outfitters...but first hand experiences with those outfitter recommendations usually fair a little better than an internet seach.
