For those of you whom might not know, killing an elk with a bow is a very difficult task! Michael's brother, Scott, had the incredible experience last Monday on a north slope in the Gros Ventre Wilderness on a very steep slope at 12:35 in the afternoon. I made the right choice to take that day off work so I got to be part of the event.
What do you do with a big bull elk eight miles back into the wilderness? You pack him up on your horses - not an easy task on a sloped hillside - and hope they can make it up the steep slope! Once atop the ridge, all we had to do was to get back down it and make the 8 mile hike out! Everyone slept well that night.
Other activities peppered Scott's visit.
Like a couple of days spent fishing on Jackson Lake!
Yes, that's Butch enjoying the day too!
I can't believe more of you don't come out to visit!
We so enjoyed spending time with you Scott. It was a day to remember the rest of our lives; I'm so glad I could be part of that amazing day!!
