Elk Next week ?? He Got One !!!!!!
How do you pack out your Elk ????
How do you pack you game out ???
We cut Cody's Bull in half just in front of the hips and drug the back half down to the river next to the Road . We then clean it up with some ice cold river water and left it in the shade on the rocks next to the river and returned for the front half. I then skinned and removed the shoulders and neck and fleshed out the rib cage , removing all the meat. The second load on my pack weighed around 85#. Cody carried the neck and head .I really think we should have just quartered the back half and also put in on packs. But we only had one pack at the time . I have two now.
Dragging the back half through sage brush and trees was a killer. 
The second load on the pack was SOOO much easier !!!
Thanks Rob.
