Hey bud great story. I thought packing out a moose was difficult...but goat hunting is next level
Excellent adventure ! Great job on a successful hunt and sharing the journey .
No animals were hurt in the making of this video...just cooked up good and tasty !
Its rough, but one trip out! I do have respect for you moose and elk guys that have to go back multiple times!
I figure the pack out of the valley was 80-85lbs and pack down around 110ish? I never weighed it, but I estimate 20lb cape and 60lb deboned and trimmed meat, plus water to add up to about that.
Lightweight gear helps. As does the mild weather where I could leave behind the tent and extra clothes and just pack a tarp. The dry weather definitely saved me weight. I knew it would hold so I cut corners where I could. I didn't even bring rain pants and only an ultralight rain shell for up top.
