Elk Hunting advice
JEB:
You did real good.
Pappy:
Nice buy Clint, Beau had one like that and I have to older green one with the aluminum frame, tough and worked well. I carried mine in 1989 the first trip and still working great 30 years later, it is probably a little heavier that the newer models. Yes Bob that is right where we were, camped by Big fish lake for a few nights and then up in Bolder for several more. Base camp in the camp ground before you cross over White river and enter White River Flat top area. We went into the flat top a couple of days, about 11,400 I think was the highest we were and we come from 500 ASL so quite a difference. I am excited for you Clint, you will love it. We plan on going back in 2020 good Lord willing. :)

I would rather it be the darker camo pattern instead of the desert pattern Pappy. Oh well, maybe I'll darken it up with some blood from an elk quarter. This is my second military bag. I like how sturdy they are.
Pappy:
Actually where we were that camo was great, I wore the paints in that pattern a lot. Blends well unless you are in the dark timber. :)

That camo should do you well! A few blood/dark blotches here and there won't hurt. That is about 20-30 years from my time humping a ruck, but a good rig! You will notice that the background changes quickly! You can match perfectly here and 10 yards later you stick out like a sore thumb! The other problem is the deer and elk are color blind! They detect movement and noise and shapes very well! Good luck! Let me know when you plan to come through!
