		Greetings from Royal Tine Outfitters, Time has flown so fast and it is already mid February. Only 1 month until the Montana license deadline of March 17th. We have a few openings for the year, but mostly we want to keep in touch with you and let you know what we offer. Perhaps a hunt or pack trip is in the future for you. We would like to think so. Email or call us anytime. We are a small family outfit and do most everything ourselves. Occasionally, we hire an extra guide. We specialize in the backcountry hunts as that is where our heart is, in the mountains. We have gentle stock that will transport you from trailhead to camp and to different points in the hunting area. I wouldn't consider the hunting terrain to be too steep just lots of it and it can be strenuous as there is a lot of downfall from previous year's wildfires. Our small cozy camp is at 7400 ft elevation. Be sure to be in good physical shape to enjoy your hunting trip to the fullest. Last year, we took 4 archery hunters and two rifle hunters. All had a great time with 3 harvesting bull elk. 2008 Montana license fees are: $1500 for the elk/deer guaranteed outfitter sponsored $1400 for elk guaranteed outfitter sponsored $643 elk/deer combo general draw (40% draw success rate) 2008 Open Dates - guided hunts only Archery: September 6-11 (1 opening) $3400 per person September 13 - 18 (2 openings) $3400 per person Rifle: November 9 - 14 (2 openings) $3000 per person If you or your close family members and friends are not hunters - NO PROBLEM!! We know how to enjoy Mother Nature to the fullest. In the summer, we take horseback pack trips. These are basically camping trips full of beautiful scenery and serene places to fish in the backcountry. These trips are laid back and peaceful.......a time to reflect with family and friends over the campfire or a hearty home cooked meal in a Dutch oven. 2008 Backcountry Horseback Pack Trip Dates August 12 - 17 August 20 - 25 $900 per person for a 6 day all inclusive trip If you love the tranquil winter landscape, seeing herds of elk at dawn, huge bighorn rams and the elusive mountain lion.......then we think a photo safari may be what you are looking for. We will travel the areas by hiking, snowmobile and 4x4 viewing the abundant wildlife and majestic scenery the Philipsburg valley has to offer. You can always top off a great trip with a couple days skiing at Discovery Basin. www.skidiscovery.com Philipsburg's own small, non crowded ski area. Now that's a refreshing thought for the perfect winter mini getaway. 2009 Winter Photo Safari Trips December 1 thru April 1 -- $250/day per person Please email, call or visit our website (www.royaltineoutfitters.com) for lots more information.
