Here at North River Outfitting, we’re very proud of our long history of providing world-class hunts in Canada. Ron Nemetchek started this business more than 38 years ago. Ron was recently featured in an interview for the online blog at Dream Sporting Trips and we wanted to share that with you here! Here is the text from Ron’s interview:  

Q: Thanks so much for taking time to talk to us! Tell us, what made you decide to become a hunting outfitter?

Ron: I was just out of high school when some people from Germany who attended the same church as I did, asked me if I would consider taking some German hunters on a hunt. At first, I said no because I needed to make a living and I intended to attend law school. They said, “You don’t understand. They will pay you to guide them!” I always wanted to be a Guide Outfitter, I dreamt about taking people hunting and make a living of it. That was the day I knew I would make a living doing what I love most.

Q: Where do you take your clients to hunt?

Ron: We hunt Whitetail Deer in Alberta, Canada. We take our Moose, Mountain Caribou, Mountain Goat, Stone Sheep, Grizzly, Wolf and Wolverine hunters in the Cassiar Mountains in British Columbia. It is a fly-in area and there is no road access to it–true wilderness.

Q: What is your personal favorite game to hunt? What game do your clients primarily request to hunt?

Ron: My most favorite game–well, they are all my favorites–I truly enjoy being out guiding for any of the species we have. I believe that most inquiries are for the combination hunts and for the Whitetails.

Q: Is there a particularly exciting or memorable hunting adventure you’d like to share with our readers?

Ron: Picture this: a misty mountain morning, moose barking in the meadow, sheep cresting a ridge in the distance, a herd of caribou running past and the sound of the clattering of their hooves–all while a majestic mountain goat on the cliffs watches from above. These are the memories that grip all of us and keep us going and wanting to make one more memory.

Q: What is the most commonly asked question you get from potential clients? 

Ron: The most common questions I get are about the difficulty and rewards of a hunt.

Q: Is there anything else you’d like to share with our readers? 

Ron: Hopes and dreams can become reality! Come make a memory with us, it’s your turn.
