Why Hunt Mountain Lions in the Snow
Crystal-Clear Tracking
Fresh lion tracks stand out dramatically against white snow, making it easy to identify a big tom's distinctive round prints and determine size and direction.
Faster, More Exciting Chases
Cooler temperatures keep our hounds fresh, and lions tend to tree quicker rather than running endless miles. Many hunts end with a treed cat in just hours.
Trophy-Quality Toms
Arizona produces heavy, mature toms—many pushing 150+ lbs with thick winter coats perfect for a full-mount rug.
From the Field
What to Expect on Your Hunt
- Tags: Over-the-counter—no draw required. Must be purchased in person when you arrive.
- Hunt Style: 1-on-1 or 2-on-1 guided with expert houndsmen and top-tier hounds. We start pre-dawn, cutting tracks from our tracked SxS rigs, then release the dogs on a hot trail.
- Physical Demand: Moderate to strenuous. Be prepared for cold weather, elevation, and potential hikes or snowshoeing to reach a treed cat.
- Combo Opportunities: Add black bear, elk, or deer to your trip if seasons align.
Our Secret Weapon: Tracked Side-by-Side UTVs
Most outfitters are limited to roads or foot travel once the snow flies. Not us.
We run fully outfitted UTVs equipped with high-performance snow tracks, giving us unmatched mobility in deep powder. That means we can access remote, pressure-free areas where mature toms grow big and old—far from road hunters and weekend warriors.
Hunters who’ve chased lions from Utah’s high plateaus to Arizona’s high country all say the same thing: if you want non-stop action and memories that last a lifetime, book a snow hunt.
