Congrats on the moose, one of these years I hope to be able to hunt moose, my biggest concern would be packing that much meat out!!!!
Congrats on the moose. I live in AK and see moose allthe time, butgot my first one just three weeks ago and you don't realize how big they are until you are standing over one. Just got my meat back (hot dogs, hot polish sausage, pepper sticks, ground yumm) and probably haveover 220 lbs of meat and I gave half of the moose to my buddy who went and helped pack out.
Which gets me to the pack out, 2.25 miles up hill, between just two guys (no ATV's, bicycles, hand carts, etc allowed). Took us 3 trips at close to 100 lbs.each trip per guy. Hardestthing I have ever done, but oh so satisfying when it was said and done.
