Where the big cats are.
Any of the Rocky Mountain states, Canada, I don't care.

Do these guys hunt remote stuff or out of trucks?
Pretty sure a little of both? I know Dale utilizes snowmobiles a lot.

Mexico is the place to go.I've heard Chile and Argentina are good too. But I don't think South American lions get as big as the North American ones. Colorado still allows dogs (last I heard) and puts out big kitties.

I may not be understanding what you are looking for. Most settings, even out of trucks or snow machines, are remote. Hound hunting has, in my experience, been one of the most physically demanding forms of hunting I have done. Can you clarify remote?
Post by: 2MANY on January 04, 2017, 10:56:18 AM
Perhaps I'm wrong but I believe the more remote the older the age class of cat.
I'm all in on the physically demanding thingy.

I guess it would be different if you were looking for desert style dry ground hunting.
and there are big cats every where..one of the biggest cats I have ever saw was started off a track on highway 20 above Tonasket.

Anything remote is going to be snowed out. I use to utilize snow mobiles and sleds for my dogs. to get as far back as I could, but the cats follow the prey down as they migrate, they are not going to be hanging way back in the high country if all the game is down in wintering areas.

Agreed and true.
Starting a cat off Highway 20 is exactly what I don't want to do but I get your point.
Thanks.

BC is the place to go, imo, for the best chance at a big lion.
This I have heard before.

id talk to Selkirk OutfittersWe can find you a big cat up in the Selkirks for sure. We rarely use horses or mules though. If you want remote, we can do that. Much of the unit is WAY up north and requires a 20+ mile snowmobile ride to get into, then it's a lot of work because access is tough. We catch big cats there, but it's not a cakewalk.

Cats have been hunted hard in most states and in BC and Alberta, there are plenty of cats but big toms are not as numerous as they once were no matter where you go. To be honest Washington has some of the best odds of finding a record book tom, in 1987 we killed the former P&Y World Record in Washington, it's too bad we can no longer use hounds in WA.
Good Luck, cougar hunting is my favorite hunt, you will enjoy it!

I've been told the guy holding that cat is 6'-3" tall.
That cat is a Wallyhauss.
