About us
Slip and Slide
outfits in Montana's famed Hunting District
area 313. This district is located 12 miles north of Gardiner,
Montana and Yellowstone National Park.
We have a US Forest Service camp permit in the Gallatin National
Forest in the Absarokee-Beartooth Wilderness Area. It is a rugged
mountainous area - our camp's elevation is above 7500 feet. The area
varies from heavy timber to open meadows to rugged mountain cliffs. Camp
is nearly seven miles from our ranch. We drive two miles on our private
road to the horse camp.
From that point on, we're in the saddle!
When the weather is extremely cold we pull out of camp and hunt out of
the lodge.Our hunting country has a healthy native elk population, a good mule deer population, and bear hunting. This country also is the traditional thoroughfare for the migrating Northern Yellowstone elk herd. |
| Our History |
In 1884 Paul Rigler came to the mountains above the Yellowstone River
and ran a boarding house, saloon, and grocery store in the mining co mmunity
of Aldridge, Montana. In 1908 he moved his wife and six sons out of the
hills and onto this ranch site. From that
date on, the family has been involved with ranching, outfitting and
hunting.As the fourth generation on this ranch, Ryan Rigler is proud to offer the same quality outdoor experience, rich with the tradition that started years before him. The commitment is, and always has been, to excellence. While Frank Rigler offers experience, and lots of great stories. |

We will not guarantee kills. We will guarantee
the best quality experience, personnel, accommodations, meals,
and service that your money can buy. We primarily hunt off
of horses and we do some hiking if the conditions are right. The country we hunt and
pack into is unparalleled in beauty. Everyone
associated with our outfitting operation comes with a strong
background in hunting and packing. They give 100% and will hunt
just as hard as a client is capable of hunting. We have, at a maximum, eight hunters in camp during the first and last weeks and provide four guides. During the middle 3 weeks we have a maximum of six hunters and provide three guides. During bow season we will have, at a maximum, two hunters in camp. Your rates include all but the cost of your license, the processing and transport of your game meat, taxidermy and your transportation to and from the ranch. Licenses and bookings are limited. Guaranteed licenses must be applied for by the 15th of March. Contact us immediately to arrange a booking date. |
