[QUOTE="Goldengun, post: 2269199, member: 109636"] Hunting elk in the mountains is like an all day exercise class. You will get exhausted. Make sure your camp is comfortable enough to sleep well, both body and mind need this. Eat as many real meals(hot) as you can and carry extra food. I always drink some kind of sport drink everyday. Know your physical limit. If your body breaks down, your done hunting until you recover. Losing a day is 10-20% of your hunt. Start slow, end strong. They say training is 90% physical and 10% mental, and competition is 90% mental and 10% physical, so it is with elk hunting. The best thing I took from my time at Ft. Bliss, TX was this quote written in large print on a fitness center wall, "fatigue makes cowards of us all". [/QUOTE]
