Guy in peaches with broken leg.

[gotcha]

Anyone know the guy who shot the 6x6 in peaches that broke his leg trying to pack it out. My cousin found him for search and rescue and got a fire built for him to keep him warm till help could arrive to get him out.

Yikes.  We are all one step away from breaking a leg and needing help out.

[gotcha]

Lucky my cousin found him I guess. Trying to figure rest of story out. There still up there.

Good for your cousin.

Do they need help packing in the morning?

The guy was from gleed. Recognize his face from the picture I was shown. Hirshey's crew helped pack him off of the hill.

He shot a nice bull. They only took the head. Meat was spoiled.

[gotcha]

Not sure yet. Was hoping someone could get animal out as well. Hope it's not wasted.

I hope all turns out well! Which part of Peaches? I was in 336 most of the week and did not hear about this.

[gotcha]

Copy that's good. My cousin was up there scouting for his tag and heard word and him and his buddies found him in dark early this morn. Got a fire going for him and sent help to find people to get him out. Hope the guy is ok.

Man, another story just like the Idaho incident...be careful out there people. Glad the ending ended good like the last one, good on the crew that brought him out and the guys that found him.

   that's it, since the young bucks can't do it, I'll take one for the team and get a divorce and marry that poor girl looking for love.

There was a guy up there the day before archery season that had a broken leg from being kicked by his own horse. My buddy used his satellite phone to call in the coordinates.

[Naches Sportsman]

The most common injuries are broken feet/ankles/arms, fingers being cut-off, falls, and livestock accidents(a hunter got kicked in the face by his horse today). Of course you have the heart attacks and strokes that are common as well.

Usually the hunting seasons when the snow flies are the worst. There seems to be more calls when the snow is on the ground. Lots more vehicle accidents, falls, and lost people.

I have helispots marked on my personal hunting map and gps incase I get lost. You just never know when you need to call in for a medivac.

I have twisted my leg bad while hiking out a Muley buck.  Luckily It was only a 600 yards straight down to the road.  I was really close to breaking it as I heard a lot of popping going on as my boot almost touched my ear.

I hope the story gets posted.  To lay next to the bull you killed w a broken leg and watch it spoil would be a bad deal.
