Well, i decided that carrying pre-measured powder in Lane's Tubes was the way to go. If i would have had some kind of tube with a funnel i could have tried that. Perhaps carrying a U-View measure, and pouring the powder into the measure and then using the measure to pour the powder into the barrel would have worked.

Oh well, it was very difficult for me to get the deer to the road. It didn't take long to realize i couldn't just drag the deer to the truck. So, i left the deer and walked the 3/4 mile; got the sled, and walked 3/4 mile back to the deer, and hauled it to the road. Dragging the sled wasn't as easy as i hoped it would be, but at least i could do it. It wasn't long before i was glad i didn't have to deal with 2 deer. It has been so muddy, that i don't know if a game cart would have worked. The mud is so sticky i grow taller with thicker soles on my shoes quite quickly, and then fight to get it off. I have washed the inside of the wheels of the truck twice now, so that the steering wheel doesn't shake whilst driving on the highway.

Next Sunday is opening day in Montana, so i imagine you will head up there soon. Good luck hunting Elk. I am heading up there this next Thursday or so, and will set up camp in the Little Belts. I only have a tag for antlerless white tail, but hopefully i will count coup on an Elk.
