"I'm already out here, boots on the ground with Alberta Big Game Outfitters, getting everything ready for your arrival. The best spots are being scouted, the adventure is taking shape – all that's left is for you to book your Alberta experience."
- Josh

The Original and Oldest Outfitter on the Kainai Nation

OKI! (Hello)
Out here, in the raw and rugged heart of Kainai country — on the ancient grounds of BLOOD 148A — the hunt is more than a pursuit.
It’s a journey.
My name is Joshua Kainai, and I was raised on this land. I’ve walked these coulees, tracked elk through the fog, listened to the wind whisper stories only the old ones understand. At Alberta Big Game Outfitters, we don’t just guide hunts — we guide experiences that test your will, awaken your senses, and connect you to something far greater than yourself.
This is a place where the old ways still matter. We believe in fair chase. In respect. In walking softly across the land our ancestors called home. Every hunt we guide is rooted in ethical practice and deep reverence for the animals and the ecosystem we share.
I can’t promise you a harvest. No real hunt ever does. But I can promise you this: you’ll feel the pulse of the land under your boots. You’ll earn every moment. And when that moment comes — if it comes — you’ll know it was real.
If you're ready for a hunt that means more...
I’ll see you out there.

🏹 Welcome to Alberta Big Game Outfitters
Hunt with a Blood Tribe Outfitter on Ancestral Land
Hey. I’m Josh Kainai — owner, outfitter, and Kainai hunter. When you come out here, you're not just hunting Alberta. You're stepping into Kainai territory — Blood Tribe ground. This is where I was raised. These animals, these ridgelines, this silence... I know them all. And I’ll guide you through them with purpose and respect.
🚙 Road Hunts: Comfortable, Accessible, Proven
Elk, Moose, Whitetail, and Mule Deer Hunts
Six-day hunts tailored for power and precision.
We roll the valley bottoms and foothills by truck — glassing, calling, moving in fast. This is the hunt for folks who want action, results, and comfort at the end of the day. The bulls are close, the timing is right, and the setups are dialed.
I’ll put you where you need to be.
You’ll rest easy in basecamp every night.
You’ll come home with meat, memory, and story.

🎒 Backpack Hunts: Deep, Demanding, Wild
For Those Who Want to Hunt Where Roads Don’t Go
You pack it in.
We climb into the timber.
We walk where the bulls walk — untouched, unseen, unbothered.
These six-day backcountry hunts take you into the high country where the trail fades and instincts take over. No trucks. No noise. Just you, me, and the unknown.
You’ll carry everything you need.
You’ll earn every step.
And if the moment comes — when a shadow steps out of the mist — it’ll all be worth it.
I won’t call this extreme.
But you’ll know it when you're in it.
