Wounded Warrior Elk Hunt
September 15, 2009
I.
Mission
Take two Iraq or
Afghanistan/decorated/disabled/Veterans/ "Warriors" on a bull elk
hunt with Elk Safaris west at the Squirrel Creek hunting camp which is located
in some of the most scenic country in the Rocky Mountains, located only 15
miles from Yellowstone National park and Grand Teton National Park makes this
hunt even more exciting as the opportunities for an action packed adventure are
endless. The hunt will consist of a 4 day 3 night stay and hunt at the
beautiful Squirrel Creek Ranch, with all meals, accommodations, and guide
included. There will also be the possibility for the Warriors to hunt pheasant
and chukar, fish for trout, visit Jackson Hole Wyoming, the Grand Tetons, and
much more as time allows. The Adventure will also be filmed by Outdoorsman and
High on Life Outdoor Adventures and then will be showed on the Outdoorsman
television show which airs on AMG and Untamed Sports Network.
