Dayton - Pack Guide

Your a wise man. Good luck with your hunt. The only good thing I can say about hiking in and out every day. Besides the fact that you will be very tired. Is that those elk move a lot! Who knows what you will see on the way in or out! Good luck with your hunt!

Keep in mind the packer may be busy. We had one lined up over there last year and made two 11 mile trips in to get the meat outa the canyon so the packer could haul it out 5.5 miles.  Well we finally got an answer back - he was busy for the next 5 days so we went back and took two more 11 mile round trips to pack the meat out.  Ended up having a 44 mile total packout for the two of us.  Pretty good hike for a 60 and 65 year old but all Good times!

5 days scouting/ hunting, 4 days packing. 99 miles total. Memorable hunt for sure! That sopping wet cape on that bull was all of a 100#.

Where in the Dayton unit are 11 miles from a road??? That sounds like a hunting camp story, was it uphill both ways?

Read it again. He said round trips. So That's 5.5 miles!
