The Season of Stupid (& elk)

[trb]

@Dsnow9 I am curious what your cooler setup is to stash 2 elk in a truck for a few days? I am assuming you're sticking around to help @MtnElk?

I’ll send that later. Just dropped the meat off in the truck and heading back in. 2 elk, 2 dudes, 1 cart, 1 trip, 10 miles.

Load cell made it almost all the way before it finally ripped but it sustained lots of abuse.

Congratulations,that’s a lotta work. Good job

 

[Dsnow9]

Ok, we made it back into camp tonight. I think @MtnElk and I have decided to call this the season of stupid instead of the season of elk so the thread name may change. We will go back and fill in sooner or later. Now it’s time to eat and then sleep

We are hiking camp out in a rainstorm. From a safety standpoint hauling another elk out of here is not an option.

Ok quick question.

Abandoned or stashed?



10 feet off an old two track, 4 miles deep. No one else is in here

Stashed then forgotten.

Looks like some public lands litter removal potential to me.

Junk. Haul it out and sell it or do them a favor and do what they should have done and throw it away...

Great pictures.

Stashed then forgotten.

Or they forgot where they hid it.

It’s an e-bike trailer in a location e bikes aren’t aloud. With flat tires. If it’s yours contact me and I’ll drop it off at the blm office for you.

Were there cans of elk blood next to it?

 

[Dsnow9]

Axle was snapped and found separate from the pile. Tires were flat. And I found the heavy duty e bike kickstand a hundred yards down the trail.

Definitely abandoned in that case

Probably tried to pack two elk 10 miles the easy way...

 

[Dsnow9]

We are out. We will update with the story of the actual hunt in the next couple days. We are grabbing some hard earned Chinese food and then driving the rest of the way home.

Glad you’re safe and welcome back to civilization.

Next year, let me do the e-scouting for you. I am pretty sure I could find you some cows closer to a road.

Pretty epic trip for antlerless elk though. I have to admire your resolve.
