Lion & Hound
Puma concolor · winter hound hunt
The Lion & Hound done right.
A hand-built 6-day houndsman hunt for mountain lion, four generations of Montana outfitting behind every tag.
Days start in the dark and end at comfortable base camp, following the pack to a treed tom with your guide. Expect to earn it. The reward is a fair-chase tom in country that still feels wild, with snow crunching under the dogs to mark the morning.

For most mountain lion hunts here you'll need a Montana nonresident license and the right tom tag (Limited Tags for this unit, HD 150). We walk you through the entire draw and application process and tell you exactly what to apply for and when, so you're never guessing and never out of compliance in the field.
You should be comfortable walking several miles a day over uneven ground, but this is not a brutal climb. Tell us honestly where you're at and we'll match the country and the pace to your ability.
Across the last three seasons our hunters have had a shot opportunity on a mature tom 97% of the time. We won't promise a kill — no honest outfitter will — but we will promise hard, fair effort on the best ground we have in the Bob Marshall Wilderness.
Yes. We welcome non-hunting companions in camp at a reduced rate, including meals and lodging. Just let us know when you book so we can plan stock, bunks and meals accordingly.
Plans change and weather turns. Reach us with reasonable notice and we'll work with you to reschedule or refund. We'll always tell you straight what your options are before anything is locked in.
