Moose Hunting Outfitter in the Yukon ?

If I were able to swing a hunt for a moose, I would do just like I do for elk, get a cow tag. Most of my hunting has ben for deer and where possible I always took a doe when it was allowed. All my elk ave been cows for the cook pot.
Therefore, if I were to do a moose hunt, I would opt for that cow tag and be happy as a clam should I fill that tag.

my Newfoundland hunts were the same price regardless of the sex . I had an either sex tag this past hunt . the older hunt must have been either sex also , I shot a cow .
 
While we can get some big moose here in NEBC, you have to get deep into the back country to find them. An outfitter is your best bet to access those remote areas.
And we saw a 70% drop in our moose population here between 2005 and 2015.
There was a 5 year period where DrMike and I hunted and never saw a bull moose from August to November, despite the thousands of miles we put on covering large areas of the region while hunting. And even the moose we saw were either lone cows, or cows with just a single calf. (The wolf populations were growing rapidly, and you could hardly find a back country road that did not have wolf tracks on them.)
I can say that we are seeing some recovery in the population, but it is slow. And we are seeing more bulls, so the bull:cow ratio is improving, and that is good news. And there has been wolf culling operations going on for several years (hunters and trappers).
