Hunting guide
Hello and Good day Everyone,
My name is Miguela and I am a hunting guide in Northern BC and Alberta for whitetails.
I have been guiding since 2011 for my parents outfit. Dedicated lots of time and effort to my career making it my lifestyle. Working with my parents and brothers has been a real blessing.
The highlight of my career in the field is seeing the smile on the hunter faces when they get their harvest.
My industry has it challenges for sure not just being a female but the environmental atmosphere of our industry seen like those who don’t understand the way of life want us to stop existing.
Overall, I am grateful for every moment I have gone to experience in the field whether it was the mountains or Alberta bush country.
