Got a debate going at the office - remember the poster with the hunter in orange and the guide packing out the elk put out by Federal Cartridge a few years back? Is that a photo or a drawing? It's signed by the "artist", but it sure looks like a photo to a few of us..

Anybody know which it is?? Bonus for those who know where it is...

Howdy, nice picture for sure-I Goggeled him and it said he was a photographer from Minneapolis. Whatever it is it is real nice. Later

I believe the photo was taken in the US somewhere. The one carrying the antlers out was from the Comox Valley working for an outfitter in the US. His wife still lives here but I haven't bumped into him for a while now. His wife gave me a poster quite some time ago....

Interesting. The e-bay listing of the pic shows the hunter wearing an orange baseball cap, yet in the artists website portfolio, it shows the same hunter but wearing a black cowboy hat. Hmmmmmmmm

Looks like a Cabelas Alaskan Guide or Alaskan Outfitter pack,I have one very similar.
