About Us

Based in Heron, Montana, Big Sky Packer and Guide School and Elk Creek Outfitting are full-time outfitters who have been in the business for over 30 years.

I’d like to personally invite you to join us at Big Sky Packer and Guide School. “School” was never like this. You will learn Trophy Hunting Techniques, Horsemanship, Packing, Map & Compass, Camp Cooking, First Aid, Wilderness Survival  and  much more. You will learn all you need to know for your Guide Certification. Being an Instructor as well as the Outfitter, I want to help you Understand and Learn from the Best in some of the Best Big Game Country in the Rocky Mountains.

Born & raised in the area, our family has been in the outfitting/guiding business for more than 30 years, and we plan to be for another 30! I grew up 2 miles down Elk Creek, hiking, hunting and enjoying the great outdoors. Our guides/Instructors are all experienced hunters and know the animals & country well. Together we will work hard to make your new career the best it can be!
