Flat Tops Wilderness guides

Language spoken by staff: English

LKS Outfitters, LLC owns and operates Flat Tops Wilderness Guides (FTWG). Formerly known as Colorado High Guides and then Hilltop High Guide Service, FTWG is one of the longest running permitted outfitters in Colorado, with almost 40 years of clients chasing elk.

Our staff is made up of experienced horsemen, hunting guides, fisherman, and survivalists. The staff is all first aid certified and several are certified Wilderness First Responders. Several of the original staff are still involved and their knowledge is invaluable to newer staff and hunters.

Most importantly, our horses and mules are made for the mountains. From years and miles of packing gear and meat, most of them know the area better than any person around. In terms of permitted camps, we are one of the largest outfitters in Colorado with 30 different camp locations. We can use the camps that fit our guest’s needs best. Camps near streams, we got it. Camps near lakes, we got it. Camps near elk rutting areas, we got it. Camps near elk migration trails, we got it. Camps near oak brush for bucks and bears, we got it. An outfitter with 4 camps? You’re stuck with whatever they might have!

Our closest camps in the Flat Tops Wilderness are about 3 miles and 1,500 ft. elevation gain from our base camp. Our farthest camps are 12+ miles and over 3,500 ft elevation gain into the area. Public access is by foot and horseback only. There is absolutely no vehicle access into the area, including bicycles.

Unlike most outfitters in Colorado, our base camp is operated on private property on the edge of over 240,000 acres of designated road-less wilderness (surrounded on three sides by public land). We invest heavily in our facilities to accommodate our guests. We have a 3,000 square ft. pack station where we can saddle and pack 50+ mules and horses at a time, under any weather conditions. We also have a 3,500 square foot lodge that can accommodate 10 guests at a time. During the later rifle seasons we use the lodge for guided elk and deer hunts.
