Just wondering what everyone uses to get their meat out with. On public land is it legal to use a sled? |
| ICEMAN:
Packboards. |

Nimrod packboard and my two legs. Can't imagine why a sled would be illegal. I used a bike cart once, desighned to haul kids. It works great. |

I think I'll be using my Eberlestock pack this year. Unless we take the easy way out and hire a packer to come in and pack our elk out on horses. :chuckle: I'm pretty sure my pack will be getting some use though, either in Washington or Oregon. I don't drag animals out anymore. Tried that a couple of times, but it's been 15 to 20 years since I've been dumb enough to do it that way. What sort of sled are you thinking of? I don't see why they wouldn't be legal. With snow it sure would be a good way to go. |

For deer we use large frame backpacks and bone the meat out. Dragging it is too hard and would ruin more meat and hide that way. For elk depending on where we shoot them we usually use horses. |
