Saddle up and experience the hunt of your life in the secluded Nevada high country. Lush mountain land, of fir and alpine, lines the fresh clear streams full of native trout.

Our back country known as "the Jarbidge Wilderness", is an area of spectacular mountain scenery with unspoiled solitude.

Most of all, it's deer country! A remote part of area 7 is home to 22,000 mule deer.


  • The Ultimate Guided Tour

    Leave the planning to us. Our professional guides on our sure-footed horses will take you and your gear to one of our spike camps. The camps are nested under the snow covered peaks rising over 10,000 feet. Bring your hunting gear and warm bed roll and we will do the rest.

    All fully guided hunts spend their first night at the spacious hunting lodge. The lodge has a stone fireplace and sleeping rooms that hold 8 to 10 people. There is a large ranch style kitchen with down home cookin'!

    Whatever your choice, the Jarbidge is a sportsman's paradise. So join the Cottonwood crew and experience hunting the way it used to be once upon a time in the West. This is a trip you will always remember.

    The Ultimate Guided Tour

  • Hunt from a Truck

    Hunt From A Truck

    If you don't want to walk or don't care to ride a horse, you can hunt from the lodge. If you would prefer this hunting style, keep in mind the weather. Late in the season when the winter storms have driven the deer lower on the mountain is the best time for this type of hunt.

    Cottonwood Ranch has a special use permit on the Humboldt National Forest.

    Weather Note: Weather in Nevada high country can be most peculiar. So come prepared for extremes.

  • Drop Camps for the Independent

    Especially for archery and muzzle loaders. You name the day and the Cottonwood packers will take you and your gear into the mountain to a Drop Camp. You can hunt on your own and match your skills against the willy deer in Jarbidge. The packers will pick you up; hopefully with a trophy.
