I also like to hunt on my own, but a couple of experiences have me thinking twice. I took a raghorn Roosevelt elk on a clearcut hillside while hunting alone. I was only a mile and a half from my truck, but it took me about 8 hours to get it out, piece by piece. At first it wasn’t too bad, but as I got more tired, I started to get tripped up and ate it a few times. The next morning,

Another experience was when I completely ruptured my achilles tendon when I was alone and having to make it back to my vehicle to get myself to a hospital. That SUCKED.
