Quite often the pack-out with larger animals can take days and multiple trips, not just an hour or two. Have done such of pack-outs with big mule deer bucks (which can be the size of younger cow elk), caribou, elk and moose. Quite often it's a good idea to take the rifle along on all of the pack-outs due to the possibility of grizzlies.
Yessir. I understand.
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”
