Thanks for all the compliments guys. It was really special seeing my son so excited. he was 2 1/2 at the time and loved every minute. My wife was as excited as i was, I'm so thankful to have a wife who loves the outdoors and understands my passion for the mountains.
I can't wait for Charlie to create a member to the living room :IBCOOL: :IBCOOL:

Once again John - great job on the bear!  Man that spot has produced for us! That's not the first bear he's packed out like that...  :rolleyes:  I recall a day in the pouring down rain and fog and getting lost down the wrong ridge and a couple mile hike out of our way in the thick berry brush before getting back to the stupid truck....  :bash: :chuckle:  Thanks again for making that pack!  :chuckle:

And Charlie - yes your bull would have been out in about 2 trips haha..  As we are quartering elk up, I just keep stuffin' meat on John's packboard when he's not lookin since he'll never notice it anyways until he get's a couple hundred yards down the mountain and says man this thing is heavy!  :chuckle:
