The Perfect Elk Hunt, Packed Out on Horses

Maybe one of our most favourite hunts, bugling elk right from the house. That was only half the fun, having the whole family to help load it onto horses and pack it right to our front door made it perfect.
Elk is perhaps the best wild game and its been years since we've had any. It took a great shot with the Tikka 7mm and some hard work by the girls to bring home a years worth of meat.

    What a wonderful father / daughter moment, calling the elk back to the river and Sarah taking the perfect shot. Having the hunt so close to home made it so easy for the entire family to join in and dress the meat. The horses are such a necessity in your area, much more reliable than a 4x4 for getting around the difficult terrain. Love how happy Rose was to hear Sarah had been so successful and at the thought of more meat for the freezer.
