[QUOTE="Kronberg, post: 472491, member: 20761"] There is a vast amount of knowledge and in our world, some of it gone but a good deal alive. Hunting out of your backpack in midst of the wilderness is a great way to refresh your sense of live. Something I rarely see is a discussion on the way how to carry game home. Arguably the ideal carrier is a Kraxen (external frame pack) which dates at least back into the Alpine Bronze or possible Copper Age. However you have often only our light ruck with you, so you have to improvise. Medium size game is IMHO best carried "Swiss style" as seen in this picture: [URL]http://www.aargauerzeitung.ch/schweiz/schweizer-jaeger-erlegen-wegen-strengem-winter-weniger-wild-11784313/asset/0/@@teaserImage/detail[/URL] Ropes are indeed always helpful. Deer will have to be portioned, but large parts might be carried in a similar way, for example with the help of your broad padded rifle sling easing the pressure against your front. Large, strong litterbags can be improvised into a long hood which helps to keep the blood out of your cloths. P.S: These "shoes" invite extreme mockery, but IMHO there is no better stalking shoe for relative warm and quite dry weather. You feel the ground very well indeed, moving more silently and smoothly. Great grip over rocks and almost flying feet. Some, me included love them, however some who tried them just hate them.
