[QUOTE="LBrandt, post: 198781, member: 2979"] Got real lucky once. Got a bull elk tag for the BOB in Montana in the mid 80. My dad told me to take his s10 4 wheel drive with topper. When packing up the truck there was our trolling battery setting right there and I thought what the hell and put it in the box way up front with some jumper cables. Put in the rest of the camping gear in and picked up a friend for the hunt. Well we left the truck at the trail head and packed in about 5 miles on foot. Came back to the truck 4 days later, never seen an elk. I got in and hit the key and click click click. My buddy never shut his door tight and the doom light was on, dead battery. The nearest yard light is like 10 miles away and I told my buddy to start walking. One road in and same road out. When he was out of sight I dug out the battery and cables and fired up the truck. Had thoughts of letting him walk farther than I did but I think he learned a lesson. He was pretty quiet until we hit the N Dak border. Some times you get lucky by over packing. [/QUOTE]
