[QUOTE="Big C, post: 273140, member: 4977"] Agree, the website was a bit confusing. They were very responsive with any questions I had, so ask away with specifics, but here are my answers to your questions. I think the confusion comes in where most of their business is fishing and for fishing they provide a cabin and boat. You provide the groceries, do your own cooking, clean fish, etc. This is also an option for resident moose hunters to go into some of their lodges. In Manitoba you need a guide as a non-resident. For our hunt the two of us were the only two out of the entire lodge, no other hunters or fisherman at that time. We each had our own guide. All meals were provided, homestyle cooking where you eat with the guides, lodge manager, cook, etc. Very good food, I didn't lose any weight! If you connect with a moose, the guides will quarter it for you (with your help if you are able), get it into the boat, and transport back to lodge. Quarters are wrapped in cheesecloth and hung to cool. If it is warm, wasn't when we were up, most times a plane will stop by and pick up the meat and store in their walk in cooler at the airport for you. You stay and fish, laze around camp, eat, explore. Getting you quality meat was very important to the guides and the entire operation. I think their overall success rate is about 70%. We each tagged out in our group but it is not a for sure hunt. We brought the quarters back and cut it up ourselves once home. The hunters before us essentially processed the meat at camp and then froze it there as they have chest freezers. We didn't want to do that as wanted to fish. Entire camp runs on a generator so electric lights, running water in cabins, showers, and all the comforts of home. Heat was from a wood stove. [/QUOTE]
