Guide & Camp Manager

Marisol guides our pronghorn and javelina hunts and keeps camp running. Hunters leave talking as much about her cooking as their tags.

Base camp

A warm camp at the end of the day

Hard hunting, easy evenings. Camp sits close to the units we hunt, so your daylight is spent where it counts, not on the road.

Lodge photo

The lodge

A comfortable bunk, a hot shower, and a wood stove to dry your gear by. Nothing fancy, just everything you need after a long day.

Camp meals

Home-cooked meals

Three hot meals a day, a packed lunch for the field, and coffee on before you're awake. Tell us about dietary needs and we'll handle it.

On the mountain

Wake on the mountain

You're staged minutes from where the animals move. First light finds you glassing, not driving; that's the whole point of camp.

Our story

We hunt this ground because it's home.

Rimrock started in 1978 when our grandfather began guiding hunters across the canyon country he'd worked his whole life. Three generations later, we still run hunts on the same units, and we still keep the season small on purpose.

Twelve hunts a year. That's it. It means every hunter gets a guide who's been glassing their unit since spring, knows where the animals move, and treats your hunt like it's the only one that matters, because that week, it is.

"You're not booking a hunt. You're booking the people who know the country better than anyone alive."

How do draw tags and applications work?

We handle every draw application and tag strategy for you, in-house, at no extra cost. We'll tell you honestly which units and seasons give you the best odds.

What's included in the hunt price?

Lodging, three meals a day, transport to and from the unit, field-to-truck game care, and a guide who has scouted your unit all year. You bring your license, tag, weapon, and personal gear.

What deposit do you require?

A deposit reserves your dates, with the balance due before the season opens. There's never a deposit required just to ask questions or check availability.

How physically demanding are the hunts?

It varies by species. Pronghorn and javelina are accessible to most hunters; elk and mule deer involve more glassing and hiking at elevation. Tell us your situation and we'll set honest expectations.

Can non-hunters come along?

Yes. Spouses and family are welcome in camp, just let us know in advance so we can plan meals and lodging.

What are your success rates?

Across the last ten seasons, 94% of our hunters have filled their tag. We keep the season to twelve hunts a year specifically to protect that number.

From our hunters

Hunts they still talk about

Ten seasons, a lot of filled tags, and a camp our hunters keep coming back to.

Booked Rimrock for my first guided elk hunt and tagged a 320-class bull on the third morning. My guide had been watching that bull since July; they don't exaggerate when they say they know the country.

Three generations isn't a marketing line here. These folks treat camp like family and the hunt like it's the only one that matters. Best week I've spent in the field, full stop.

I've hunted with five outfitters across the West. Rimrock is the only one that called me back the same day, every single time, before I booked and after.

Brought my son for his first javelina hunt. The guides were patient, the camp was warm, and he hasn't stopped talking about it. We're already booked for elk next fall.
