Elk Hunt

[hskerholic]

Going on my first elk hunt in September. We are going to Colorado and I am gonna plan on archery hunting this elk. Some are gonna try for muzzleloader tags. Any tips from people who have gone? Stories?

If you're not already . . . get in shape. Several buddies would load 50lbs into their pack and go for 25 mile walks in Nebraska . . . but it's still nothing compared to the combination of altitude, snow (maybe), and elevation changes.

Bingo.

 

I got a buddy who would go out and try to do it totally out of shape and one day he almost couldn't make it back to camp.
