I shot a nice bull this year and i grabbed the front quarter, foot still attached, and moved it to some snow. It was dang heavy, but doable for most guys (I am 185#s). We took off the leg at the knee and it easily fit in one game bag. I think if you wanted a little bigger load, you could put a backstrap each in with each of the front quarters. However, I dont think I would wanna trek that too far uphill. Deboned would be much, much better if you had much of a walk. I think deboned quarters (4 bags) and one more for the backstraps is fairly doable for most guys for most hauls. Most of it depends on the hauler's ability.
