Whys is a game cart illegal in a Wilderness area.  Nothing with tires or wheels? Never heard that before.  I knew about combustion engines, but tires and wheels wow.

BINGO!!
no bikes in the wilderness either for the same reason.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Many wilderness areas it would be a real piece of work to get your cart into anyways. You'd be better off with a horse than with a cart by far.

For those who are not fortunate enough to have money or space for a horse a hard pastic sled(cabela's has them) makes an excellent way to drag your animal down the trail.
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

here is how to build your own cart. 

Materials:
2 ) 6-8 ft 2x2 treated poles
1)  old bike tire and rim from a kids bike
8 inches of all-thread
washers and nuts to fit all-thread

drill holes at one end of the 2x2's  to fit the all-thread ( drill @ an angle so the handles will be hip width when attached to wheel)

replace axle from kids bike tire with all-thread

place 2x2's on the all-thread and secure w/ washers-nuts

lay the poles with wheel attached on top side of deer and lash deer to poles securely

roll deer over and start walking

Cost me $10 for the all-thread and 2x2 poles
best cart I ever used, Cheapest too
A pat on the back is just shy of a kick in the ass..
