Re: August moose hunt?
Haven't hunted moose in August but dealt with plenty of bull elk in early Sept temps reaching 25c. Get them gutted and skinned ASAP, it's crucial to let the body heat escape as quickly as possible. Gutless method is best, cut down to the big leg bone / hip joint to let the heat out. Hang them in the shade as you pull them off. A portable cooler setup is a must have, or at least access to a cooler/meat locker within 24 hours.
