Well your timing might just be perfect. Plenty of news on how hot the west was this year. It’s going to be hot for a few more days and then the high, from the Blue Mountains of Oregon into the Rockies is going to be 30 degrees cooler next week. Could throw the rut into high gear.

15 + cubic feet stacked in a chest freezer. Another 10 or so if you organize it.
Packing it home in Ice chests you'll be close to 400 quarts of ice chest space.
Seems like air taxi guys are big on what have you done for me lately. Once you've learned to catch the plane, keep it off the rocks, get all the cleated wading boots and bear spray in the floats, or belly pod, turn the plane, get your clients into the plane without breaking anything; load 100...

I just got a notice regards entering...
I did it every year for 20 years, couple different dogs. My current brace of shorthairs started making the trip at six months, they are 12 and 13 now. Portland and Seattle suck! They have done very little in the way of accommodating dogs. Get there early and plan on having to explain to them you...
