Saw Outfitters

SAW Outfitters is a family-owned guiding operation in Eastern Idaho founded by Hayden and Grace Walker. The name honors Hayden's grandfather, Steve Allen Walker, whose values and backcountry traditions shaped everything SAW does today. This isn't a corporate outfit—it's a small team of guides who treat every client like family and every trip like it matters.

SAW specializes in four primary big game experiences:

• •Elk Hunts — Peak rut season with bugling bulls and high-action spot-and-stalk
• •Mule Deer Hunts — High-elevation glassing hunts in steep, remote alpine terrain (5 days, $6,500-$8,500)
• •Black Bear Hunts — Spring season, spot-and-stalk or over-bait options
• •Moose Hunts — Limited availability, call for details

Archery and rifle options available for most hunts. They also offer youth hunts, combo packages (elk + mule deer), and a DIY dropcamp option for hunters wanting semi-guided backcountry access at $500/day per person.
