Our track record speaks for itself. For the past 12 years, we've enjoyed a 100% success rate on both our spring and fall hunts, with nearly 85% of muskox making book. We've also held the SCI World Record for the past six years. Our Nunavut caribou hunts are best in class, boasting the highest success rates in the industry for trophy caribou. We also offer high bow success, with both 1 and 2 tag hunts available.
For an exciting, high success Arctic hunting adventure, consider adding a caribou to your fall muskox hunt. This combo hunting experience is perfect for both bow and gun hunters.
Henik Lake Adventures, founded in 2005, is owned by Ryan and Dorothy St. John of Arviat, Nunavut. We've partnered with another top-quality outfitter, Dave Fisher and The Lodge at Little Duck, to provide the operational expertise that comes from 45+ years in the hunt/fish industry. This partnership ensures that our hunting adventures in Canada's Arctic regions are supported by operational, logistical, and managerial experience, along with necessary back-office services.
Arctic hunts can be physically demanding, requiring careful preparation for a safe and successful hunt. Our base camps at Baralzon and Edehon Lake provide all the essential comforts of home, including tasty home-cooked meals, warm and dry accommodations, experienced Inuit guides, and professional onsite managers/cooks. These locations have provided magnificent trophies and caribou hunting adventures to many hunters who have trusted their hunts to Henik Lake Adventures.
For Spring Muskox Hunts, our base camp is the community of Baker Lake, near the Thelon Game Sanctuary. This area is traditionally used by the local Musk Ox herds, and hunters can enjoy the benefits of a warm room, hot shower, and a hot meal after a day's hunt. We have enjoyed a 100% success rate since 2005 on these hunts.
We also offer spring Barren Ground Grizzly hunts coupled with BG Muskox, Wolf, and Wolverine. In the fall, we have added a BG Muskox, CBG Caribou, and Polar Bear to the ever-growing custom hunts offered by Henik Lake Adventures.
At Henik Lake Adventures, we are committed to building the most reputable, experienced, and successful outfitting company in the Western Arctic region of Canada's North Country. We live, work, hunt, and fish in the Arctic all year round. This is our home, and we invite you to experience the thrill of hunting in this beautiful, rugged wilderness.
