Mike Jensen from Nebraska recently joined us for a BC Moose hunt. The rut was on and the action was fast & furious. After calling in a couple of bulls on the morning of day 2 he found one on the road that he couldn’t pass up! Guided by Darren Bell.

Name The Game
We recently had the pleasure of guiding Levi Morgan of Name The Game TV for Mountain Goat and Black Bear. For those of you who live under a rock, Levi is considered one of the greatest bow shots ever to walk the earth. Not only is he an amazing shot but he proved to be a beast in the mountains. Same goes for his brother and camera guy Micah Morgan, who is an accomplished hunter as well, and after breaking his arm on the mountain on day 1 still hung in there and finished out the hunt. BC & BEYOND Outdoor Adventures guided Levi to a great Mountain Goat and a GIANT Black Bear during the week he was here, completing his Super 10 award. We had an awesome time with them and can’t wait to hunt with them again.
Larry’s Big BC Bear
Larry Edginton from Mather California joined us this spring for his first ever Black Bear hunt. After looking over a number of Bears, Larry and his guide Sheldon Souter found this beautiful old boar. Larry now has a great trophy to bring back to CA, and Sheldon has yet another record book bear to add to his guiding resume.

79 yr old Dr Che Park from CA, USA joined us this fall to try his hand at fall bear hunting. Together with his guide Darren Bell they seen 78 bears during the hunt, proving what we at BC & Beyond already knew… This region has more bears than ANYWHERE in North America. After a hair raising stock, Che made a perfect shot on a huge BC Black Bear.

Ode to the Mountain Hardwear Kiva
Floorless pyramid/tipi style tents are more popular than ever, thanks mostly to mountain hunters who need to pack as little weight as possible… knowing that chances are they will be packing extreme weight on the way down from there destination. There are many pro’s to this style of shelter the biggest of course being the weight to space ratio and their compact size once in your pack. Most guys will use their trekking poles for the center pole, saving even more space and weight. Another big pro is the ability to cook inside the tent, and not having a floor, one does not have to worry about removing your boots and tracking mud into your shelter. This makes it also handy for guys who backpack with their dogs. The advantage the Mountain Hardwear Kiva has over similar tipi style shelters on the market is the extra material sewn in along the bottom to keep out bugs and the wind.
There are some cons to this set up however. You have to be conscious of where you camp. If you choose a spot that water can collect in, and it rains, you will wake up with a wet ground and gear. Also set up times are much greater with this style of shelter so that’s something to consider as well.
Some specific brands/tents that I recommend are:
– Mountain Hardwear Kiva, and their new Hoopla(Review on the Hoopla coming soon).
– GoLite Shangri-La 3 and 5
– Black Diamond Mega lite
– Kifaru Tipi’s
