I've attached a few more pics. The caribou hunt at Cold Bay, AK., shows the wind...east to west then west to east , the bogs..pretty hard to walk thru with the snow. A couple more Kodiak Is. pics...finally saw this bear on 4th day, never got a decent shot, but on the 6th day I shot him or his brother about 1/2 mile from where the pic was taken. Lastly, the captain returning to his boat after dropping me off at Kuzhuyak Bay for my hunt. I would not see him until nine days later.

I guess you could say this thread is worth the read, maybe.
When I was on the right side of 40, being away from road ~3 miles was routine enough. I hunted solo most of the time, on foot.
By the time I got on the wrong side of 60, I had horses. So, going in 5 miles one way was pretty typical. During that decade, all three of the elk kills I was involved with, involved horses packing the meat ~4 miles.
I'm still at it, for now @72. The bull I killed this fall involved a ride a bit less than 3 miles. There was a road ~1/2 mile away from where I killed the bull. That was an easy down hill walk to the road.

There's been a couple times when I sobered up from the Lacroix high, and took the bullets out of the gun.
I shot one bull about 4 1/2 miles from the truck. When I told my son where it was setting up a family pack out he asked my why I killed a bull there.
It’s where the bull was, duh.

I backpacked into the Bob once for the early rifle and it was really hot, so purposely left the elk game bags at home. Figured I could pack out a mule deer if a nice one was spotted. Opening morning a nice bull stood broadside at 20 yards, about 8 miles from the trailhead.
Damn, I really wanted to shoot that bastard!
