Mosquito Valley Outfitters

We are located in North Western Nevada near the California and Oregon border making our Mountain Lion hunting some of the best anywhere and our Mule Deer, Big Horn Sheep, and Antelope some of the best in the State. We offer several guided trips and several species to hunt! Where we hunt in Nevada is in an area over 150 miles across. Elevations range from 5,000 to 9,000 feet. There are rugged mountains and canyons and there are mountain basins and benches with easier terrain. Walking isn’t easy, but if it were easy it wouldn’t be any fun! Most mature toms will weigh from 120 to 160 pounds and skin out from 7 to 9 feet in length, but through the years many larger cats have been taken by Mosquito Valley Outfitters that have weighed as much as 205 pounds. Mosquito Valley Outfitters clients have taken numerous record book cats through the years. But don’t assume it’s easy to find a record book cat. It’s best to go into the hunt looking for a respectable cat and if we find a big old tom, then figure you have beaten the odds. The owner of Mosquito Valley has been outfitting and guiding cougar hunters more than 15 years and has caught hundreds of cougar. Lion hunting is not just something you think about doing, it’s something you long for and it’s a chance to fulfill a lifetime dream! Let Mosquito Valley help you live your dreams During your hunt, Mosquito Valley Outfitters can usually tell you within 20 pounds what a cat will weigh and tell you its sex just by looking at the tracks. To a well- trained eye, male cougar feet look much different than female cougar feet. The size and shape of the foot, and the width and length of the stride help determine the sex and weight of a cat. This is important because there's no sense wasting time on an animal that you have no interest in taking. The time can be much more wisely spent trying to locate the size of cat that you really want. Mosquito Valley Outfitters never tell anyone they have to take any animal. The choice is yours concerning which cats are chased and which cat you may want to harvest.
