If money were an issue, I'd book a hunt with one of the outfitters in Northern B.C. along the Yukon Border.......the moose can't read maps and they don't know whether they are a Canadian Moose or an Alaskan/Yukon Moose. Ceaser Lake Outfitters borders B.C.....they are just across the line in the Yukon. I really can't believe the bulls they kill there are any bigger than the bulls on the B.C. side, but the moose hunts along the border in B.C. are much more reasonable....like several thousand dollars less. Many of those outfitters are running 90% plus on their hunts and there is nothing small about the moose they kill. And as you say, they're not going to get any cheaper.. I've yet to see a guided hunt go down in price. It wasn't that long ago you could go to Quebec and kill two caribou for $3,500... that was the going rate as recently as the early 2000's. Of course, the caribou hunting there has been shut down now but it more than doubled in price in less than 10 years before they closed it.
