Congrats!  That picture of her with the pack on had me laughing.  That truly reflects the feeling of a miserable pack out!

Yea, reminds me of that old Alan Jackson song...

I'm grown up now three daughters of my own
I let them drive my old Jeep across the pasture at our home
Maybe one day they'll reach back in their file
And pull out that old memory
And think of me and smile and say

It was just an old worn out Jeep
Rusty old floorboard, hot on my feet
A young girl two hands on the wheel
I can't replace the way it made me feel
And he'd say, "turn it left and steer it right,
Straighten up girl, you're doing just fine"
Just a little valley by the river where we'd ride
But I was high on a mountain
When daddy let me drive

It's just an old plywood boat
With a '75 Johnson with electric choke...

"HOYT" why would you even consider shooting something else?

If those two pictures don't sum up elk hunting I don't know what does.
