​

Regular day schedule for first 3 days of trip at caribou camp

​

• 7:00 A.M.

  • Breakfast is served. Every morning is a simple, hearty, different breakfast to get fuelled up for your day.

  • As soon as you are done with breakfast and lunches are made, you and your guide, either by boat or on foot, are on the tundra looking for that big trophy bull.

• 6:00 P.M.

  • Supper is served. We often add local treats such as caribou or lake trout.

  • Hunters coming in early or looking for a little break often go fishing. Trophy Lake Trout and Northern Pike are taken within minutes to camp in the past.

  • As the sun sets, the northern lights come out, giving you a display you will not soon forget, hunters retire for the night for a comfortable, well-deserved rest.

  • The guides work hard processing your animal in the butchering tent and carefully tag your meat, rack, and cape to make sure your trip home in uneventful.

​

Regular Day Schedule for Remaining 6 days Moose Hunt back at main lodge

​

• 6:00 am

  • Breakfast is served

• 7:00 am

  • After breakfast, if you have decided not to go with a shore lunch, you will be invited to the kitchen to prepare your lunch for the day.

  • You will walk the 50 yards to the dock where the lodge manager and the guides will have the boats ready to go. Each boat will have a full boat tank, extra fuel, depth finder with fresh battery, GPS-SPOT, seat cushions, life jackets, net or cradle. Everything you need for a great day of fishing.

  • Lodge Manager likes to be at the dock when you leave for the day and when you return after the day of hunting, to make sure you have everything you need or to hear about what you would like for the next time you go out.

• 7:30 am – 5:30 pm

  • Usually the first day is more of an exploration of various spots. Then, the rest of the trip, you expand on these spots. Each morning a weather report is published and available in the main lounge. Depending on weather you could head down to the south end of Munroe Lake to hunt in the Greening River or try out some spots in and around McKinnon Bay. You could decide to stay on the East side and call from the shores or go for a hike.

  • One day you might decide to stay on the West side, exploring Brownstone River, or Pike Bay. 

• 5:30 p.m.

  • Every day our staff will have prepared a different delicious appetizer available in the main lounge. Many of our guests enjoy their favorite beverage while they try out these tasty treats.

• 6:00 p.m.

  • Supper is served.

• 7:00 p.m.

  • After supper, you can go for an evening hunt or fish for a few hours, go for a walk, or just relax in the main lounge. We just like to know where you are planning to go, for safety purposes.

• Bedtime:

  • When you are ready, you can retire to your room for the evening. Our guests tend to sleep very well, with all the excitement of fishing, good food, and fresh air.

​

Last Day

​

• Morning departure on the floatplane back to Munroe Lake Lodge.

• At Munroe we transfer all your baggage, meat, and large racks to the Cessna Caravan on the airstrip.

• The Caravan brings you to Thompson, but because of varying fall weather we recommend you make your travel arrangements from Thompson as late in the day as possible.
