Bear down need quick answer.

I shot a nice bear tonight. I got it quartered and skinned but the last 40 yards the stickers were to thick and steep. Will the hide be OK over night or will it slip? I know the meet will be fine as it cooled nicely? I'm still on the hill 448gmu

I would assume that if it's not too terribly warm out .. it should be fine. I don't know for sure .. in guessing here . Do you not want to do multiple trips ?

Shot it at 7:39pm, back home in bed at 3:05 am. Is there such thing as a quick drive to go look for a bear? Quarters cooling in the big coolers and hide in freezer.
That was the nastiest 75 yard pack out ever! I owe my hunting partner big time! We are both cut head to toe from the 6ft tall black berry bushes that kept trying to kill us, shredded my new pair of First Lite pants, my buddy works in 2 hours but man it was awesome.
