Very well done.

Nice to see some father and son mountain hunting. Thanks for sharing, I hope to have a similar story, but in inverse come September. Any advice for getting a goat for a near 70 year old?? Never mind, the old boy is in better shape than I!

Great work...nice goat...awesome memories.

I didn't listen to the audio...how long were you up and how did you find your eberlestock pack?

Again...congratulation on a great hunt.

Really nice photos. It shows it pays to take the time to slow down, take a minte and plan some good shots. You'll have them all your life now!
Nice deal, thx for sharing!

BTW: How essential do you feel the walking poles are for hunts like this?

That jetboil stove rocks. This was my first trip with it. Those eberlestock packs work great for this type of hunt. If I were in better shape we could have each fit a goat in our packs with ease. We took 4 days worth of food and spent 3 nights on the mountain. With my worn out knees, I couldnt do a trip like that without walking poles. My arms are sore from all the weight I put on them rather than my knees. Its great to see my son becoming such a fine outdoorsman. At 16 years of age he will have many great mountain hunting adventures in the future. I was in my late 30s before I was exposed to backpack hunting. As we drove home from this hunt, I looked over at my son and smiled. He turned out exactly as I hoped he would. I had no idea he took all that footage with his little nikon camera.

Looks like a great hunt.

What model Eberlestock packs are you using?

I just put together an Eberlestock X3 Lowdrag tactical daypack for day hikes/hunts I'm totally impressed with the pack but I am now thinking I need to get one for overnight hunts.

Brook that was great footage you took of your trip and with a camera to.
I can tell you really enjoy the mountains and spending time with your Dad.
