| Hunting |
Mid-Asian Ibex hunt is classical spot-and-stalk hunt. Spike camps are often used in conjunctions with the permanent base camps in order to provide you with the best hunting possible. Horses are of great help for hunters, and can get hunters of all types into prime game country. In some areas a great deal of riding is required. Ride before you go on this hunt. During the day you will explore the upper edges of mountains, glassing the hillsides and feeding areas. Normally you see numerous Ibex during the day. Physical condition is a factor on the stalking portion of the hunt. Long range shooting, up to 400yards, is normal on the hunt. |
| Base Camps |
Tents, yurts (GER) or hunting cabins are used to accommodate the hunters in these regions. Base camps have no modern conveniences but they are clean and warm. In all base camps showers are available. In all base camps you will have a cook and interpreter. In spike camps you should expect spartan conditions. Good skilled stuff makes you feel comfortable. Base camps are located in deep mountains while spike camps are set up on the plateaus at around 5,500 – 7,000feet. |
