To give you an idea of what some of that country's like, some years ago, 2 hunters went down in a canyon there somewhere and shot a bull. While dressing it out, one of them died of a heart attack. It took rescuers 3 days to pack his body out of there. I have no idea how 2 men planned to pack out an elk. Granted, the elk would probably have been in smaller pieces, but there were only 2 of them.
