Congratulations and thanks for taking the time to share that with us. I love that last picture where the rack and load are almost as big as Joy. Tough lady!

I am the guy that walked by your camp with the yellow lab the next day and visited with you and Joy. It was great listening to her story of the hunt and the excitement in her voice even the next day. I think she was stopping everyone who went by. Your write up of the hunt is great and I was glad to here it from both of you first hand. Hope to see you both again in a couple of weeks if the weather allows.

Awesome elk. Did you hang a bag of rocks off the back of her pack to slow her down? (first picture)
