[QUOTE="Wildyote, post: 183196, member: 2259"] 2 trips per hunter times 2 men is doable. You will not split a bull between 2 of you in one trip. I have packed bulls with a friend of mine where he took two loads and I took one as I stayed behind to cape and bone while he made first trip. This was awful tough on the knees. I would recommend going with 2 trips per person with two of you and leave your camp until your done packing your elk and go back and get it after your done. If you cant take mules and horses in the country your hunting then you should recognize a over-loaded pack can be a free ride off a ledge or maybe a knee surgery. Don't try to impress anyone by overloading your packs impress your family by returning safe with a few coolers of elk meat. To all those over 40 take an aspirin a day on these hunts as it can save your life. Believe me I went through open heart 3 bypass surgery and was awful lucky I caught the signs. I have known too many guys that have had massive heart attacks in these situations. [/QUOTE]
