Great write-up and congratulations on the success! 2 dead elk and a reliable hunting partner. Neither come easy!

Thanks for sharing! I love these success stories. Anyone who has elk hunted knows that it doesn't come easy. Congrats on your success!

I'm also curios of the packs you guys had. Yours looks like a Kifaru T1 maybe?

I order mine from Amazon it is the Silk Road Citric Acid,(2 Lbs, 100% Pure, Powdered Crystals, Bulk, Food-grade) If I remember correctly it was $11. It is crystals so I carry 4 oz with me.I use 2 oz per qt or 1 oz per pint and one qt will do one Elk's worth of meat.The citric acid puts a nice skin on the meat and keeps the bacteria from starting and bugs away. Just bring a pint spray bottle with you and add 1oz per pint of water. Shake and dissolve the citric acid crystals. Then just spray the meat and let the meat cool down.

I did the exact same on my elk last fall.

dangerousD I pack with a DT1 with bikini frame Absolutely love that pack.I always feel great while and after using. This was Danny's first trip and I loaned him a older Kelty of mine. I used to use the Kelty for local trips.

Yes sir its great stuff and light enough to pack without adding a bunch of extra weight.

Enjoyed the read, congrats on the harvest, as well as finding a new partner,... any elk is a good elk, but a elk taken with a bow is hard earned.
