Mountain10mm Campfire Regular M Joined: Apr 2017 Posts: 1,373 Colorado	Originally Posted by ChrisAU Me and my hunting partner both agree this isn’t a fat man’s game ha. Well said and it made me laugh. Had some friends from WI meet us two years ago, they just about died during our preseason scouting, not to mention actual hunting. Even living at 8400' here in CO it's still exhausting at 10 or 11,000'. My advice to any new elk hunter, is get in shape, like seriously good shape, and get the best sleeping bag and boots you can afford. Forget spending $ on a fancy rifle, if you can't walk and sleep you won't need a gun. If your feet are cold, wet, and hurting you won't want to hunt. If you can't stay warm at night and get a good night sleep, you won't get the rest your body needs. Those two will drain your motivation fast.
