Take the second gravel road on the right, and drive to the end of the road. Take a waypoint so you can find your truck. Gain 2000' elevation and 2 miles from the truck in a southwesterly direction. Keep going until you come to the meadow. Shoot the 6x6 in the meadow, tag, gut, quarter, skin, bag, hang. Take a waypoint so you can find your elk. Load the backstraps, tenderloins, any organs you like, and as much of the trim into your daypack as you can handle. Tie the rack on top, with lots of orange flagging tape for safety. Carry back to your truck. Swap out for your frame pack, and repeat x 4 for the quarters. This may take a couple of days, so take at least 4 days off total for the hunt.
