RE: Elk Hunting Advice: Your Do's and Don'ts
Make sure you carry water with you at all times as you will get dehydrated much more quickly at higher altitude.
Whenever you leave your horse tie it securely and remove your rifle from the scabbard.
Make sure you have footwear suitable for the terrain and make sure they are broken in.
Make sure your sleeping bag is warm enough for the temperatures in the area you intend to hunt.
