Why Texas Hunters Choose British Columbia for Big Game
Texas has a strong hunting culture and plenty of game, but not every hunter is looking for blinds, feeders, and flatland stalks. If you’re a Texas hunter craving steep ridges, cold mountain air, and fair chase in remote country, British Columbia offers that kind of challenge.
​
At Gunsight Peak Outfitting, we guide Texans into the Coastal Mountains of British Columbia, where you’ll track big game through thick timber, rock-strewn valleys, and high mountain trails. These are not controlled environments or manicured leases. This is real mountain hunting with real wild animals in a country that feels untouched.
​
We guide hunts for black bear, mountain lion, and Columbia Blacktail deer, and each trip is built for hunters who want something more raw and physical. If you're used to private ranch hunts and want to explore a tougher setting, this is a good next step. We handle guiding, lodging, meals, and transportation so you can stay focused on the hunt.
What to Expect on a British Columbia Hunt from Texas
Many of our clients come from Texas. Some are lifelong hunters. Others are looking to try their first guided mountain hunt. What they all have in common is the desire to push themselves and hunt where the game has room to roam.
​
Our black bear hunts often attract Texas hunters who want to hunt in a more natural setting, where bait lines and fences don’t apply. The terrain here supports big-bodied bears and plenty of cover, especially in spring and fall. Our mountain lion hunts take place in rugged, snow-covered forest during the winter months. These hunts involve tracking, glassing, and patience.
​
If you're interested in Columbia Blacktail deer, our guides will take you into areas known for older, harder-to-find bucks. These animals move differently from whitetails and require a different kind of hunt. Gunsight Peak Outfitting offers Texans something you won’t find back home. High elevation, deep wilderness, and a real test of skill. We’ll help you plan your trip and get you ready for an experience that stays with you long after the season ends.
