About Us
Chris Franke
Owner, Likely, Canada
This year marks my 37th year in the outfitting industry. It brings me great joy to see the smiles of my clients as they begin to relax and enjoy the hunt, the game, the adventure and the beauty of the Cariboo Mountains and then…the coup de grace! Success! It has been an amazing journey and career choice, one which I do not regret pursuing. The memories I am able to give my clients for their children and grand children is well worth the years of being in this business! Thank you to everyone who has hunted with me!
Lawrence Dunkley
Lawrence is the epitome of a mountain man, a great hunter, trapper, and fisherman. His love of the outdoors is rare and refreshing. Having hunted, trapped, and fished since childhood, Lawrence’s knowledge and skills are a great asset to Mountain Spirit Outfitters. You will never be bored around him as conversations are funny, enlightening, and knowledgeable. If your moose happens to die in a not so desirable location, do not despair as Lawrence is strong as a bull and most likely could pack an entire moose out all on his own! A great guide who will work hard to get you your game, always with your comfort in mind.
