When Caribou Hunting in Quebec Canada the main area of hunting, the Minto Lake region, forms the headwaters of the majestic Leaf River and is one of the largest fresh water lake systems found in the western sectors of Hudson's Bay. Large lakes such as Minto Lake, with its rich habitat and immense waterways help slow down caribou migrations and hold the animals longer. Throughout this inland region of Hudson's Bay and its coastal areas, When Quebec Canada Caribou Hunting the hunters will find a true arctic environment, rich in lichens and browse sought after by hungry and migrating caribou of the Leaf River herd. The last census and survey of the herds passing through and seasonally using the Minto Lake areas have been evaluated at over 500,000 head.

"An incredibly large lake
with lots of accessible territory!"
"Boat mobility is the key"
The tundra landmass surrounding
Minto Lake is an incredibly rich forage base for trophy
bulls that are looking to put on weight prior to the rut.
Sparse stands of small black spruce trees litter the shores
of Minto Lake while true tundra like habitat with it
boulders and dwarf willows dominate the landscape. The
entire land mass, with its hundreds of lakes and rolling
topography, offer hunters thousands of caribou migration
corridors with natural crossing areas between the many
lakes. From the air, caribou migration
trails and sign is everywhere. Thousands of caribou trails
and migration routes scar the landscape, indicating the
tremendous volume of animals that have passed through the
region over many years. The absence of hunting pressure from
other outfitters on our 2,000 square miles of our native
land lease, allow the caribou a more natural and less
hurried migration, thus increasing the amount of time they
spend in the area. Our large boats and big outboards offer
incredible mobility and security around this large body of
water, allowing hunters an immense waterway to scout and
hunt. Judging by the quality of caribou bulls sighted by
Tuttulik hunters during the past several seasons, these
native traditional hunting lands of the Hudson's Bay Inuit
have proven to be a trophy caribou hunting paradise.
