drop camp elk hunt a bust

[Matth]

Since I didn't graduate from collage but took many 101 level classes I will add one thing.

The drop camp hunts I have heard my friends talk about typically require you to pack the meat to camp unless it's hanging on the trail on the way out.

Not accurate, I have been in the caps 4 times with 2 different outfits, and neither one of them required this. All we had to do is get it to a trail they could get a horse up. In 2016 i killed a bull in the bottom of bear creek nearly 6 miles from camp " that was on top of the mountain" Got back to camp that evening sent a text to Barry, got a text the next evening that it was hanging at such, and such locker in town.

Yes, I had every intention, with him saying that he would try to be in within a few days, to get it quartered and hung somewhere cool. From there, work out a time he would try to be back in and get it to the trail so he just had to load and go

I just love september and chasing elk too much. My dad is convinced our drop camp happened for a reason and I would tend to agree with him. The man upstairs works in mysterious ways

That's a shame. It sounds like he didn't have current information to base the location on.  Google Earth can show geography but not wildlife.

Not entirely true. 🤷‍♂️
