It all Depends on the terrain your in,, we leave the the frame packs,,game carts in camp till one of us gets an animal (elk or deer) down,,if any of us downs an animal he gets ahold of whom ever in the party he can to let them know where and what to bring in to haul it out of there.

When your in elk country it's a team effort ,,, carry those two-way radios w/(extra batts.) and keep that radio with you, that way when you do get an animal especially an elk your readily available to get your party in there to help you out with what ever. i travel light, (minimal gear),like i would the way i would normaly be hunting deer.
