Our Story

image369

We are Tyson Cannon and Mike Ahlstrom, first cousins who have been hunting together in Southern Utah for over 25 years. We learned to hunt from our grandpa Vic Cannon in Pine Valley, Utah. He instilled a passion in us for the outdoors and the general season rifle deer hunts. Over time that passion has grown, and we have been guiding and hunting in Utah, Old Mexico, Wyoming, Colorado, Arizona, Nevada, and Idaho for a combined 45 years.

Five years ago, we noticed that there wasn’t anyone in Southern Utah who guided quality hunts for quality bucks on general season units. We started MTn Outfitters to fill this niche. While we love limited entry tag (and have and will continue to find success in hunting and guiding them), one of our strengths is the general season deer hunts. We know the quality is there on these general hunts, and that with our hard work and dedication we can help you dig up that buck of a lifetime on a general season tag.

We want to bring you in, to experience hunting like we did as we grew up, just like if Grandpa Cannon was still right there with us. The kind of experience where it truly is about the hunt, the comradery, and the friendship. We have managed to kill a lot of giant animals over the years, but we feel one of our great successes has been the quality hunt, the lifelong friends, and the bond formed as we've tracked and hunted big, mature animals.

We can customize hunts to your needs to help you succeed in fulfilling your dream of killing a trophy animal!
