Block management hunting Montana

Camp Meals
We cooked our meals at home then froze them for our week long hunt. Chili, stew, seasoned taco meat and Mountain House for supper, Usually sandwiches, jerky, or tuna packets for lunch. Breakfast was protein bar, cheese crackers or breakfast biscuits.- huntin' lunatic

altitude
We got to Durango a day early and went out and checked out where we were going to meet the outfitter. That was how we planned to be able to get acclimated a little.
