[QUOTE="Hntelk, post: 664060, member: 39807"] What time of the year? Early or late....either way when I hunt NM in Oct..it can be 80 degrees and then cool,off to the 30's at night. Get hide off your meat and into some meat sacks...find shade and keep them cool as possible...make sure when you put them in shade...they will stay in the shade as the day goes...get to cooler as soon as you can.... If you have some extra $$ hire a local to help you pack out meat or contact a few of the local outfitters and ask them?... if you kill an elk is there any of the guides or family of guides that would want to make a few extra bucks packing out meat. Physical fitness wise....just get your pack on your back with some weight in it and hit the stair climber... I would also plan-- make sure you have enough water when you go out...or way to get more water cause it sure is dry out there!,..lol There is alot more to this but I am just hitting the highlights....it's all going to be trial and error till you go for yourself and find out. Half the fun of the hunt for me is the planning... Good luck [/QUOTE]
