THE MIGRATION
OF THE CARIBOU
For years, the summer migration routes
of caribou of the legendary George River Herd changed very
little. Recently however, things have changed a lot. It is now difficult
to predict where those caribou will be during the hunting season. To
keep up with this ever changing migration, we often take a last-minute
decision right at the floatplane base at
Squaw Lake about which area we must hunt. The choice of a camp site is
guided by the latest available information about the location of the
main caribou herds, and the direction they are taking. Another important
factor for a successful hunt is to have access to enough hunting sites
to be able to move a group of hunters from one location to another more
productive area. Think about that when booking your next caribou hunt
in northern Quebec.

BOW
CAMP - Dedicated to Archery Hunting
The
recent changes in the migration pattern of the Quebec-Labrador
caribou forced us to review our hunting methods in order
to give our bowhunters the best hunting opportunities. We
settled for a simple but efficient strategy: our camps will
be moved during the hunting season between sites prepared
in advance, depending on where the herds are located. Most
camp sites are 30 to 100 miles apart, most are located along
the major migration trails. |
