Wifes First Bull Elk! 2017 in Colorado!

That is kickass, congrats to your wife!

But I'll echo the bafflement on dragging...hell, I didn't even drag my antelope doe this year and I could see my car a quarter mile from where she went down! Gutless quarter and on ice fast for everything means you get sweet meat and don't have a bunch of garbage (hide, pelvis, lower legs, spine) to throw away! I'm practically married to my Stone Glacier backpack.

Tow strap for dragging out whole elk.

What is that on her head?

balaclava (if I spelled that correctly). Just pulled up over her head. Hides the shine of human skin very well

I apologize if I've misunderstood this post, but is that a legal kill in Colorado? I thought you needed 4 points or better. I'm new to all of this so I welcome any corrections and information.

Some units are 4 point or above and some have no antler restrictions. In this case, her elk was in a no antler restriction, although it is a 4x3......sorry it took so long, haven't been on very much lately.
