Hello all, I am going to be headed to a SCI banquet here in a few weeks. An elk hunt is a big possibility by the time I leave. There are a few elk hunts that are being presented in Alberta. I have never thought to look at hunting Canada for Elk. Who has done it? I am missing something and should be taking a serious look at this?

I haven’t hunted them there, but I saw a bunch of them on my moose hunt south of Grand Prairie a few years ago. There are definitely elk in Alberta. If you have access to the outfitter names, google them up and see what sort of animals they are harvesting. I know some areas in Canada have very strict elk hunting, so there are some giants depending on location and how available tags are.

All elk hunting up there has to be with a guide and trophy potential is not that great. Lots of better options else where in the lower 48.
