    After a good nights sleep we again packed the meat from the cow back to the truck at the trail head. Luckily we got back to camp and packed up the camp before the storms rolled in. A little reflection time as we packed up the camp for the last time this season. On the way out right before...

    ***Recap 2014 Montana DIY Archery Hunt***

    I meant to mention that on the way to the truck with the last load of meat we ran into two young men in their 20s. They were hiking the Continental divide trail from Mexico to Canada. We talked with them for a while and I was quite inspired by them. It was nice to see two young men doing...

    Spike out camp from spike camp

    Over the years I have changed my opinion on this. Used to be I would have a base then a bivy to spike out. Not anymore. Now days I move my camp mainly because if the animals have moved a few miles from the area they were they will probably stay there for a while. Of course my camp and pack...

    kifaru meat baggie capacity??

    This might be a little late but I used one last elk season and packed out two elk using the Kifaru meat bag. I used it with my DT1. We always de-bone everything and let the meat chill for a few hours first. The Meat bag held roughly 65-75lbs tops of de-boned meat. I like the bag because it is...

    Photography- one photo a day

    Took this one on a second trip back in to pack out a Elk. The rainbow ended almost where I shot him. I thought it was pretty humbling and poignant.
