I'm an elk hunter, but only for 4 or 5 weeks of the year.

Elk have pretty much run my life for the last two decades. I got a BS Resorce Conservation from the U of M because I wanted to work around elk. Worked for the RMEF part time when I was in college. Started a biz so I could make enough to take the fall off and elk hunt, then started guiding elk hunters, then bought an outfitting biz. Until you have been atop the peak on a pony in September watching the sun set to the chorus of a bugling bull, you havn't lived.

I consider myself an elk hunter! Been on 4 elk hunts, the past 3 have been diy. Haven't killed an elk yet, should've killed 2 but that's another story. I think about elk hunting pretty much every day of the year. Can't seem to get it out of my head! Usually I get 5 days a year to hunt elk! It's amazing so little time that I am able to devote to this passion can control so much of my life!

Count me In.

I've been lucky enough to take two bulls on my first two hunts, 1st guided archery hunt on horseback out of a base camp. 2nd guided archery hunt out of a drop camp, both on public land.

This years challenge will be do it yourself pack in with a couple of friends and I know it isn't going to be easy.

Would love some feedback on packs from anyone out there. Need to pack in a 7 or 8 days worth of gear, on foot. Looking at a Kifaru freight hauler with a day pack strapped on along with multiple pods. Are Kifarus worth the $.
