At Bear Basin, we believe that the hunting experience should be a true adventure, conducted in a tasteful and aesthetic manner, and undertaken in a way that involves a minimal impact on the natural environment and respect for the noble animals that we hunt.

Each season we work with only a small number of hunters, most of whom have hunted with us in past or have found us by referral. Our carefully selected camps are limited to small groups. Each camp area is hunted only once each year. We have held a Use Permit from the USFS for the Sangre de Cristo Wilderness Area since 1972.

Hunting at Bear Basin is best suited for active, fit hunters willing to make a maximum effort in rugged, steep, high country under frequently adverse weather and cold conditions. We require strict adherence to safety and Colorado Hunting Regulations. Our experienced guides and camp staff expend every effort to insure that guests are given the best of service and opportunity. They eagerly share their extensive knowledge of game habits, horse packing, campcraft and hunting technique.
