About this trip
$8,000 per person | 5-Day Guided Hunt
Take on one of the most challenging and rewarding hunts in the West with Ridgeline Wilderness. Based in Delta, Colorado, these guided mountain lion hunts take you deep into the rugged country of Colorado’s Western Slope in pursuit of one of North America’s most elusive predators.
Ridgeline Wilderness covers an expansive hunting area across Units 52, 53, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 70, 411, and 521. Having access to this much country gives the guides the ability to adapt throughout the hunt based on snow, weather, lion movement, quotas, and current conditions.
This is a true Western predator hunt where no two days are the same. Hunters should come prepared to cover country, spend long days in the field, and experience the excitement that comes with pursuing a mature mountain lion through Colorado's mountains.
From fresh tracks to the final pursuit, this is an opportunity to experience Colorado predator hunting at its finest.
