Medicine Bow Outfitters Inc, Jared Florell
About
Medicine Bow Outfitters specializes in “Fair Chase” big game adventures in the scenic North Park area of Jackson County, Colorado. Operating under permits from Colorado Parks & Wildlife, Colorado State Forest State Park, and the Colorado State Land Board, the outfitter provides access to prime habitat consisting of sagebrush hills, aspen draws, and steep timbered ridges. They focus on Elk and Mule Deer in Game Management Units 6 and 7, an area known for a resident elk herd of nearly 10,000 animals and some of the best genetics for mule deer in the state.
The operation offers several distinct tiers of service to accommodate different styles of mountain hunting:
-
- Fully Guided Hunts: Guests are packed into a remote base camp by team and wagon. These all-inclusive trips include lodging in wood-heated cabins, camp-cooked meals in a mess hall, and 1-on-1 or 2-on-1 guiding by horseback or hiking.
- Wilderness Drop Camps: For self-sufficient hunters, Jared’s team provides packing services to pre-set tent or cabin camps deep in the backcountry, handling the logistical heavy lifting of gear and game retrieval.
- Specialty Hunts: Beyond elk and deer, they offer fully guided Moose, Mountain Lion, and Black Bear hunts, as well as unique spring Greater Sage Grouse and Shed Antler expeditions.
A cornerstone of Jared’s operation is the Vincent J. and Vance D. Florell Memorial Fund, which allows youth ages 12–17 to hunt at no additional cost when accompanied by a paying adult. This commitment to the next generation, combined with their traditional pack-in methods and high-success “Base Camp” rifle hunts, makes Medicine Bow Outfitters a top choice for those seeking an authentic, old-school Colorado wilderness experience.
