Thanks! I have spent a lot of time in the past few years hunting a different type of game in the Afghan mountains, so although my mountain legs have softened a bit since I've been home, I do know what type of shape I need to be in. I'm excited to have some elevation to climb again. Thanks for the tip!

I'll pm you my contact info if you wanna hit up a 3d shoot or two or if you wanna meet up and check out some new country.  I'm on the east side of the state but I plan on doing some shoots over there this spring/summer and the Alpine Lakes Wilderness is just over the pass from you.  Great mule deer country.
