Packing an Elk!

Dustin went elk hunting with his muzzle loader.  He got a beautiful elk.  It was up on a high - hard - to get to bluff.  There was a lot of Lava flows to climb over to get to this.  It was only a mile and a half from the pickup, but it was the longest, and hardest mile and a half climb I have ever been on.  With 200 pounds of meat between us.  We got up there in the middle of the day and as we were coming down it was dark.  We got to the truck after dark after caching about half the meat a ways up the mountain.  We made a trek out.  It was pretty dark by the time we made it to the truck.  It was a late night but now we are going to enjoy our elk!  It was definitely a hard won meal.  We now have about 200  pounds of meat in the freezer.  It should be yummy!
