Shadow Mountain Outfitters

Tim Faiers has been in the guiding business for 30 years, starting out at the age of 17, guiding for the local outfitters in the region, learning all the skills it would take to operate a guiding business, of his own one-day. In 1987 he met his partner and wife Astrid (Oz), and together, they realized they, both had, the same passion for the industry and they decided to venture out, and start their own guiding service. In 1993 we purchased our Bull River Territory consisting of 340 square kilometers. It soon became a very special destination for many American hunters, some returning as many as 15 years in a row. With a 60% of clientele repeats. As demand grew, we realized we needed to expand our operation to meet the needs of our many hunters. Shadow Mountain Outfitters purchased a second hunting territory in the West Kootenays offering additional 4400 square kilometers. This area is located in the Purcell Mountain Range 60 miles west of our Bull River area. It is situated about 4.5 hours north of Spokane Washington taking you through northern Idaho. It is the largest guiding territory in the Southeastern corner of British Columbia, encompasses the 80-mile Kootenay Lake. It should be noted that the guiding area has seen very little hunting pressure in the past 20 years and had never been set up to take non-resident hunters.
