Isn’t that have every solo elk goes?
Congrats on the bull. Having been in the bottom of that country this year via raft I have no need to hunt the breaks for elk. My pack this year was no where close to as rough but I also ran out of water. I think a lifestraw earned a permenant pace in my pack

Great story and pictures, JLS! I got tired just reading it.
Yes, it was a new Beartooth 80. It’s now a well used Beartooth 80. I really like this pack. I don’t use the top lid for day hunting. I’ve been playing around with just the bag and it seems to work well. Still a few quirks and nuances to figure out. The frame is awesome.
It was pretty easy to lash the head on with a quarter. I really like the two buckles that attach the bag to the top of the frame when you are hauling meat.

Just found this post after reading your Christmas message. One heck of an adventure! I missed it the first go around as I was in another part of "Church" chasing goats when you posted. Life changing country to hunt in and congrats on a well earned bull.

Dang I was in the hills and missed the story the first go 'round. Some of your comments this weekend make more sense now!

I missed this thread the first go around too. Congrats and glad it turned out the way it did.
I’m amazed at how much more water I go through on a hot day bow hunting compared to rifle hunting in the cold. It doesn’t take long to go through a lot of water in September.

I also missed this one. Glad you didn't die
I find myself singing this in my head a lot these days.
