Got my first cow. Wasn't planning to hunt so I had loaned out my gear to a friend, decided to buy a tag after work. Tagged out about 10 minutes into season next day.

Packed it out with 1 of those clunky painful pack frames from the 1980s, all weight on my shoulders with enough rope tied around the game bags to stretch a mile.

2.7 miles from the truck. Those old pack frames can make a man out of anyone.

I did! First elk hunt, Wyoming rifle cow tag. Had to hunt longer and harder than I expected, and adapt outside my comfort zone of spot & stalk, but it came together in a really rewarding way at the end. It was a very scenic hunt, but my camera's memory card failed when I got home. I'm hoping a professional can recover the pictures and then I'll post a report.

Finally got a chance to really get out and hunt. Harvested my first ever elk, super thankful to have the opportunity to harvest this spike. The last 2 years life has had other plans for me that didn't allow me to get out, so it makes this all the sweeter.

Was lucky enough to get my first elk with my once in a lifetime ND Elk tag this year. Gorgeous heavy 6x7
