I am also going Spring Bear hunting in Idaho and I am glad I ran into this convo. I am looking to go into 1 of 3 units but might be changing depending on what I am reading. I have been looking to get into units 4, 10 or 12. I will also be doing spot and stalk not much bait. I am worried after...
OK I have a question for you ladies and gents. I have been hunting deer for about 6 years and I have never butchered my own deer. I am from IL and I am driving out to Wyoming for my first elk hunt. I am going to quarter the elk out and bring it home in coolers. I want to do my own butchering and...
I have a question for you about keeping the meat good during the hunt. I will be hunting with another person who will also be hunting. My question is then if one of take our elk, how would I keep that meat from going bad while my friend or I would still be hunting? We are not very close to any...

I just want you guys to know that I have been hiking back country camping since i was 18 which was 12 years ago, I just have never hunted while doing that? Thank you for all the info you guys have given me. I just think it will be better to stay by the truck even though everything I read says...
thanks guys for all the good info. I think we might try to camp out of the truck by the trail head and just hike in after what you guys are saying. I think that might just be the best way to do it as being new to backpack hunting
I am also looking for ideas on what I should bring for food. Not really sure what to do for that amount of time for food. I am also looking for ideas on tents and sleeping backs because I can't bring a wall tent due to the fact that I have to hike in about 3 miles from the closet road
I have been doing some research on hunting Elk in Wyoming. I also have found the hunting at the trail heads is something I shouldn't do because it can be very packed with other hunters. So my plan is to backpack farther into the area to get some better hunting and hunting alone. The problem is...
