Here is my elk from Colorado's First Rifle season this year. I drove out there by myself and got it done in a unit that is over the counter for a lot of hunts. First Rifle is not, which is why I chose it. This was my first elk, and second elk hunt, both times in the same unit.
I shot him 8 miles from the truck and covered a total of 65 miles in 5 days. I was insane to think that I could pack it out by myself and got very lucky that I ran into some very nice and helpful hunters who helped me more than I could have ever dreamed. It was a perfect week and an experience that I will remember for ever. Eventually I will post a full write up of the adventure, but I have been busy getting the meat all processed and picking back up my 9-5 job. Stay tuned for the story.
