RE: had my first major injury on annual elk hunt.
Thanks for the reminder. Good thing you are ok, and made it home.
That is one thing that many of us out west face. We may end up with a bad injury, and have to rely, on our preparation, wits, and common sense to make it out alive, not a cell phone call, or reliance on somebody else to be there in a shot.
I HOPE something like that never happens to me, but I am sure it will, and I am sure I will be able to handle it, whatever it may be.
Good luck
