A lot of us have been have been hunting this way for decades... maybe you should post down at the backpack hunting forum.



Form's hunting "stories" always involve feats of physical endurance that mere mortals could not accomplish, a rifle that should have been annihilated (but miraculously survived), and ingenious tactics that reinvent the wheel.


This one is much less suspenseful than the one where he dropped his rifle off a cliff and was running up ridges to kill elk, but its interesting none the less. I'm not sure how many times you would have to drop a rifle on frozen ground to get a big glob of dirt stuck to it for the photo op, but I image its not easy.
