About Us
Chris Franke
I have been in the outfitting industry for the past 26 years and gained a vast range of knowledge with all aspects regarding the business. Through my guiding skills several trophies have been entered in the esteemed Boone and Crockett Book, including caribou, grizzly and whitetail. My extensive years of guiding and familiarity with the outdoors is not just limited to successfully filling tags but to offering the greatest gift of all…an unforgettable wilderness adventure. My greatest joy is not only for you to leave with trophies but also with experiences to treasure that will be cherished and shared with friends and family, stories that will remain for generations to come.
Artemis (Arte)
Arte is a Rhodesian Ridgeback from southern Alberta. After extensive research I decided on this breed to be my companion. She is intelligent, a quick learner, loves people and great with children. She is named after the Greek Goddess of the hunt, wild animals and the wilderness. Artemis is the equivalent of Diana, Goddess of Hunting. Arte just had her first birthday Christmas Eve. She is not afraid of gunshots, loves riding in boats, great moose tracker, loves moose and deer meat, ATV’s and counter cruising.
Sebastian Paul Orfey
Paul is a Master Carpenter from Germany and a real asset to Mountain Spirit Outfitters bringing his love of the outdoors and extensive carpentry skills to upkeep the multiple buildings. As well as being mechanically inclined, his mind is very analytical able to figure out almost any problem that may arise. Paul has come to Canada for the past ten years to the Cariboo Mountains which has given him a wide knowledge of the area and the game patterns. Always cheery, friendly, organized he is a welcome benefit to Mountain Spirit Outfitters.
