Guests at Pine Ridge Lodge enjoy the benefits of having their
game recovered from the kill site using 8 wheeled ATV’s.
This allows for complete recovery of your game, without the
backbreaking work, and without incurring the contamination
and spoilage of meat and trophies associated with “de-boning”
on site. Your game will be recovered “same day”
and returned to our screened game care facility where it will
be hung, skinned, cleaned, quartered, and covered in protective
wrap in readiness for transport to the freezer facility. Quick
recovery, cleaning and transport to a freezer facility is
important, particularly during warm temperatures.
Upon arrival at the freezer facility, it will be hung until
your departure date, or until it is being processed by the
butcher. Pine Ridge Lodge will act as your agent in handling
all butchering and shipping of your game and trophies while
you are returning to your home destination.
Full butchering services are available locally at an additional
charge. The butcher will process, package, and label your
game meats in accordance with your specifications, and will
package it in styro-foam insulated waxed lined boxes in readying
for pick up by you, or for shipping.
Game shipments from Newfoundland are handled by a Newfoundland
based trucking company who provides refrigerated trucking,
and who has business arrangements for “short term”
storage with freezer facilities in various cities across the
United States. Arrangements with the local trucking company
are handled by Pine Ridge Lodge on your behalf.

******** Your hunting license is being held for you at the hunting lodge. *******
Please note that, for all "Fly-in" hunts, ie Deer Pond and Kepenkeck Lake , total hunting equipment must be restricted to 1 rifle or bow case, 1 military style duffel bag with belongings (50 lbs), and one compact sleeping bag.- Total Gear Weight (Not including Game Meat and Trophies) is 60 lbs plus bow/rifle case.(Maximum 3 pieces of Gear.) Baggage limits in excess of those specified will necessitate additional flights which may not be possible on the same day as your transport to camp, and which will be chargeable at $250.00 per flight direction. The most common problem is too much gear. This often results in delayed delivery of baggage by commercial airlines upon arrival in Newfoundland. Please restrict gear to reasonable/essential levels.
REMINDER - DON'T FORGET YOUR SLEEPING BAG
IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO PURCHASE NEW FOOTWEAR OR HUNTING CLOTHING, BE SURE TO WEAR AFIELD FOR AN ADEQUATE PERIOD OF TIME, AND SUFFICIENTLY IN ADVANCE OF YOUR ARRIVAL DATE TO VERIFY PROPER FIT AND COMFORT LEVEL FOR AN EXTENDED DAY OF HUNTING.
