Appreciate the comments gents. Stuff like this happens so no worries. I am thinking of heading back to NE BC for goat, elk and moose. We'll see.
Ed, Would seriously consider the BC goat hunt. I just ticked that one off my now short bucket list this past September. I had the good fortune to hunt with a great guide and outfit. Moose and mountain caribou are available in that area as well.
Apples and oranges re Africa, but an incomparable North American mountain hunt.
