DIY New Mexico Gila Elk

[Jamesl]

Been there done that.. Brutal indeed! Now I use a horse and two mules.

I agree, after a 12 mile pack out two weeks ago, we are looking into buying pack mules/horses.

To heck with the meat, we need pics!

I imagine he's dealing with a weather change, cold front moving through.

Headed in for last load then back to Texas. I can't wait for a hatch chili cheeseburger

Anybody else go to sleep last night thinking.."I can't wait for the updates tomorrow"?

I thought he was camping with someone and had a guide contact info. Did the other guy head home? Did he contact the guide. I assume he did. Just thinking out loud

Yeah...I didn't have a lot of confidence in J.T.s parntner after JT implied he couldn't hike on the first or second day. Who draws a Gila tag and leaves after 3 days ??? [emoji848] Wouldn't been much help packing even if he stayed. JT is a 100% gamer.

What a freaking waste. I would have been up there as fast as I could drive to take the guys place.

I imagine he is. You can't put that much time in research, physical and mental preparation in to it, then to not be all in
His hunt is what diy is about. Do ur research, get in shape, make sure your equipment is good, hunt ur tail off, make the shot and bring it home.

There are very few times in a persons life when you give everything you have for something. You are mentally and physically past the breaking point somehow you keep going. But when you give everything you have and succeed, it is worth the pain.
