Ok, I'm back from an epic Father/Son hunting trip! After a whirlwind tour of gathering gear and a little bit of knowledge from this site and Rokslide.com, the 2013 Mountain Goat Trip is now in the books!
This was our first try at the goat hunt and it would be a trial by fire!
I started out in Squamish,BC and then took the Skytrain to YVR. Now that was weird walking down the street with a huge camo pack and gun case. Why, yes there were weird looks! Ya ya, I know! More than normal! I then fly to Smithers, BC and then off to my old home town of Hazelton.

Seen above is my Eberlestock J107 Dragonfly pack. I love the built-in gun scabbard.
On the Weekend, my son Christopher and I gathered all our hunting gear and drove out into the wilds of the Hazelton mountains. We unloaded the ATV and our hunting packs (50lbs+ each) and rode another 12 km into the mountains.
