I've tried the local forum (HBC) but since this forum lacks a lot of the drama most of the other forums have, maybe I'll have better luck finding someone here.
I'm in the Fraser Valley and would like to move to more backpacking style hunting next season if anyone is thinking about doing the same.
Currently I set up camp at the truck and hike from there or ride the ATV somewhere and hike but I'd like to do more packing in to hunt. I need a bit more gear to backpack hunt-a shelter and a sleeping bag mainly, that I plan on picking up by next spring. In the past I have done a fair amount of backpacking so I have experience there, just not backpack hunting.
About me;
I'm into archery and rifle hunting. I dream of elk but I always buy a tag for just about everything.
40 years old with a wife and 2 kids, one of which is almost old enough to get his hunting license and wants to hunt too.
I got into hunting late so last year I shot my first deer. Although I still have plenty to learn, I think I'm starting to figure some stuff out.
Shoot me a message if you want to meet up and BS, hang out at the range and shoot guns or bows or both. There's plenty of time before archery season opens in 2021 to figure out if I'm a worthy hunting partner. I am headed out in a week and a half for the end of elk season and may go after deer in November/December as well though.

Maybe I should read up on moose. The only almost-legal moose I've seen was last year. The day before archery season I followed a spike-fork up the logging road on my way to finding a spot to camp. It was August 31 and spike-fork moose opened for archery the next day. I swear he knew it and he jiggled his junk a little extra in my truck's headlights while I followed him up the hill for a few hundred yards lol. Outside of that I've only spotted cows and calfs.
