How many people don' t think ahead of time on what to do AFTER killing an elk ? Good discussion.

Theres 2 ways I know of of getting an elk out assuming you are walking in and hunting.

#1 - debone and pack it out. Damn tough work
#2 - pay an outfitter to go get it. You still gotta do the work or quartering/deboning, but at leat this method will save your back (at a $200-300 price)


ATV' s will work if the animal dies on a road or you do the illegal thing and take your ATV off road. Elk hunting is hard, as it should be.
