    Blisters

    Back of the heal. Wearing liner socks and merino socks over. Had to tape up the heals on the last long hike with no issues. May have to do that, otherwise it's rubbing. I feel like I should have +/-75 miles on the kennetreks and they should be getting broke in?

    Hit/lost bull

    If he was bleeding out on level ground, that tells me the shot was low enough to bleeding out. I've had animals not bleeding out until the body cavity fill with blood up to the hole. If he stopped bleeding right when he went up hill, that tells me the shot it not far back and the hole is more...

    Blisters

    I have been getting blisters on my heels every time I take a long hike. I would say the boots are half to 3/4 broke in. Will getting blisters, prevent blisters in the future once calloused? Or should I plan on taping my heel on all longer hikes for the future?

    How close to camp?

    Thank you for the hot tip, but not sure how this relates to the questions. I was unaware people didn't like to pack elk miles.
