Something I think alot of hunters are missing is what you execpt from your guide.If you spend the week sitting on your arse you better tip him .Any elk camp I have been in has plenty of work to do.Giving the cook a hand with dishes won't cost you anything.There's always wood to cut,horses need watered.Did you sit in camp while your guide quartered and packed your elk out. You damb well better tip him.I have hunted with guys that never lifted a finger in camp, stayed up a night drinking, then sat on their arses and waited for the hands to do everything for them , these people are never seen again ,but for their stay they sure hunt alot of game void areas.
