Our Area
Dunedin River Outfitter is immersed in the awe and majesty of the Peace Region. This hunting area, one of British Columbia's most northern and pristine area, is simply referred to as the Serengeti of North America. The region is God's gift to hunters. We are very fortunate to have our main camp nestled in this surreal region. Our entrance borders the notorious Alaska Highway # 97 reputed for being the gateway to the immense wilderness of the Rocky Mountains, the Yukon, Northwest Territories and Alaska. A short distance up the road from us, we find 3 well known provincial parks: Stone Mountain, Muncho Lake and Liard River Hotsprings. www.bcadventure.com. The Peace Region stretches between the Rocky Mountain foothills on the west and the Alberta plains on the east. The rugged region crosses 3 ecological zones from the high alpine peaks and meadows to low lying swamps and aspen forest. In summer, the sky is filled with endless daylight in a venue overflowing with diversity and beauty. In winter, the night time sky is star filled and often brightened up by colorful arrays of dancing northern lights.
With over 3,500 square kilometers of prime hunting territory, Dunedin can satisfy the ambitions of many big game hunters. The Peace Region contains some of the biggest moose and elk in the province. The region is also home to all kinds of wildlife consisting of several species of ungulates: stone sheep, mountain goat, caribou, mule and whitetail deer. In addition, we find 8 kinds of predators such as lynx, cougars, wolverines, wolves, coyotes, foxes, grizzly bears and black bears. Plenty of birds like the majestic bald eagles, goshawks and peregrine falcons are also part of the alpine scenery. The region is so prolific with animals that it's close to impossible not to observe wildlife on your ride north from Fort Nelson to Dunedin River Outfitters. Keep a camera handy! Deer, moose, bear, caribou and elk are frequently seen foraging for food in clearings alongside the highway. It is common occurrence for many photography buffs to try out their cameras before they even leave the porch of the main lodge.
The rivers and the lakes in the Peace Region hold good stocks of Dolly Varden, Arctic Grayling, Northern Pike, Lake and Bull Trouts. Many of these fishing holes are just a short driving distance from main camp.
What makes Dunedin River Outfitters such a special place to hunt? Why do we produce superior moose, grizzly and 6 point elk that make the Boone and Crocket score book? For starters, we have a great location filled with a diversity of habitat. Secondly, our mountainous valleys, plateaus and wetland complexes hold vast amounts of feed. Thirdly, our area is exposed to very little hunting pressure from neither the local residents nor the non-residents. Finally, we manage our area with the respect and dignity it deserves. I'd say those are four good reasons why an outdoor enthusiast should book a hunt with Dunedin!
