Claims of a 20 mile packout

[tdhanses]

There is only 4 mountains in montana with a promenince of over 5000ft. So he told us exactly were to go find elk.

Yeah but he didn’t say where his bait pile is located.

Its pretty humbling when you swap out the BS meter for a pedometer.

And put your pack on a scale.

I know people who have packed a full sheep plus their gear further in single loads. I'm sure some guys out there have been crazy enough to bomb an elk 20 miles out. Still, GPS and a scale at the truck tends to keep everyone honest.

The end of this video at about 4:45 shows the other evidence of similar pack-outs. (Not my video, nor do I know these fellows).

I thought everyone on Rokslide packs in 20 miles.

Stone sheep (generally the largest sheep) - 250+ lbs
Bull elk - 700+ lbs

Obviously. Still wouldn't surprise me if a few guys were crazy enough to get it done. I'd have my doubts, as anyone would, if someone told me they solo'd an elk 20 miles though.

As an aside, stone sheep are not generally the largest sheep. That would be bighorns.

I guess that depends where you look. I saw a source list stones up to 300 lbs. Some sources also list bighorns at a max of 300lbs.

Guys I hate to break it to you, but hunters are the biggest bullshitters out of any population in society. 9/10 of us are full of so much shit its hilarious. I bet this guy sprays himself down in scent control products.

I don't. I'd walk in from the other side. It would be shorter.

I looked at a spot in Montana a friend told me about Idk how many miles. But I wouldn’t go on foot. Would be a horse spot for sure (he went on horse)

I have found I prefer a base camp. Drive and day hunt different spots from there. Have done one back pack trip. Maybe again one day. But the comforts of a base camp are nice. Shortest pack out: slide down hill into back of truck. Farthest maybe 2 miles. Works for me

It always amazes me the number of guys on the internet who are infinitely tougher than anyone I've ever met in real life. An alternative could be that the internet is full of blowhard idiots who exaggerate things hugely and are trying to make themselves sound bigger, badder, and tougher than they actually are. I wonder which is true???

Guys he’s simply talking in Facebook miles. Facebook miles are much different than real life miles. For every 10 Facebook miles that means one or two real life miles. Simple math really.

We did 16.67 total miles in New Mexico in 2016. But it was 3 trips on the pack out. Took us from morning til well after dark.
