[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 1545302, member: 11960"] Both of them are about as athletic as I'd expect 14 and 16 year old kids to be, and that's entirely based on motivation. With a little gentle encouragement from a cattle prod they'd likely complete back to back Ironman Triathlons. If you ask them though they can't make it from their rooms to the couch without stopping to use an inhaler. LOL The cow elk hunts in January are pretty low impact and most folks can do well on them. I'll admit though that going from where I live in WA at 500' elevation to 5500'+ in Utah took it's toll on me and my dad, but my son did fine. I've always had respiratory problems and my dad has emphysema so trudging through 24" or more of snow at that elevation was actually a pretty good work out while getting the elk out. Of course we could have just let the guides handle it, but that's taking part of the experience out of it. Those prices are what I paid 2 years ago (2 years this month actually) when I hunted with them. I'll reach out to Dale the owner and see if they're still current. He has a hunting forum that I hang around fairly often and he's pretty active on there during the off season and in between hunts.

The only thing we don't have here in WA is an elk season that lines up with my work schedule. [/QUOTE]
