Are you tired of skinning and processing elk yet? That is a lot of elk. Congratulations.

Great post! What's the nearest town in Wyoming where all this killing went down? I lived in Lander for a few years. What knives did you use for gutting, breaking down and skinning chores?

With a Elk hunting career of 80 animals i'm sure you have a lot to share on Elk cartridges and bullets. Using a7-08 in some of your posted pictures is a statement on what is adequate for Elk.

Nice. I was lucky to pull a tag in KY in 2018. Being around Elk in person was something else.

Sounds like a lot of fun and lots of good meat for the freezer.

Nonsense
Everyone knows that you have to use at least a .340wby to kill an elk!
Very cool pics and stories! I live in Michigan and dream about elk hunting out west
