Would’ve loved to have seen you load those llamas into that minivan.

I'm trying to convince my buddy to buy some... so that dream has at least a chance of coming true.

@3855WIN sorry to let you down, but if I manage to get a deer this year it's going into the corolla whole. I promise to well document that endeavor.

Very well done! Thoroughly enjoyable read.

I feel like a lot of Llama outfitters/ renters are going to be making similar price increases if they haven't already. Rented two last year and despite their slow walking and "IDGAF about your hunt" attitude, they were absolutely worth every penny. Too bad somebody will always be willing to pay more. Great looking hunt! I bet that soccer-mom-mobile has been more places than most jeeps lol

Looks to be very little snow, why would the guy have chained up?

I had a full pucker moment a couple years ago on a road that was fine when it was frozen in the morning and evening and a skating rink at midday, very little snow on the ground other than what was packed on the road

Easy answer he didn't wanna get a scratch on his 70k I'm better than you hunting rig.

But... but... where's the LaCroix?

Great job!

Nice work brother! So after talking to you about hellacious bull elk pack outs I imagine this was a nice change.

Got a hot tip about a sweet place to hunt elk in the high alpine.

My llama outfitter decided that 2021 seemed like a perfect time to 2x+ his llama prices so I decided to make poor decisions without any four legged companions.

Arrive at the trail... hmmm

When I was in my late 20’s I would have done that as well. Sometimes it’s worth it, sometimes it ain’t.
