It could be the most expensive hiking trip I've ever been on.

Making memories! Worth every penny!
Exactly! Getting to hang out with me is priceless!

I see the high altitude has inflated your ego. How it could get any bigger is beyond me.
I noticed you didn't go into detail on your shooting practice. Still missing the target? 
Haters gonna hateI see the high altitude has inflated your ego. How it could get any bigger is beyond me.
As far as my shooting, have you know, I've a got a nice little easement behind the house that affords me plenty of distance. But my tiny, worn out block target doesn't leave me much room for error
. Min distance to shoot is 30 yards so I don't blow my arrows through it! Also, for your entertainment I've got my wife's treadmill down in the new basement. I'll have reverse rucking mastered in no time!

Nice. Looks like everything is working out. It's a shame a taxidermist as good as you has to put those skulls on the floor. Time to tidy up.Haters gonna hate

I can guarantee that we'll eat good, drink good if I can keep @AT Hiker out of my Natty lights, breath Mtn air, be dog tired & chase elk! What else could you ask for ?
Dang that's a pricey elk tag

I'll have a few extra beers I can spot him. We're 3 months out and I'm already dog tired.I can guarantee that we'll eat good, drink good if I can keep @AT Hiker out of my Natty lights, breath Mtn air, be dog tired & chase elk! What else could you ask for ?
I'm both jealous and impressed by this preparation. I have to start taking better care of myself and I need motivation like one of these hunts… but archery hunting elk is lower on my list than rifle for sure
And that is AWESOME!
Prostaff no doubt , I can see it now with all yalls #dirtnap #forthegram #gamechanger
I kinda dislike you right now being in gorgeous country as we suffer 100 degree weather here in Tennessee

Speaking of heat, it whooped me. I wasn't prepared for it. I like to exercise in the afternoons, not the mornings. But, in the summer months, mornings are the only tolerable time I can get a run in. I failed massively last week. 2 strength training sessions, 1 run, no hikes, and only 1 fishing session. Even my step count was below normal.
My sleep score is actually better than that. I had 1 really bad night's sleep due to a puking pet but several nights of good sleep without my watch on. I've been taking it off before my evening shower and it's been too hot to put it back on before bed.
My car is headed to the shop for new wheel bearings this week, so I'll be stranded at home for a couple days and hope to get in some e-scouting.

Printed unit map showed up in the mail today. Time to break out the markers and start marking areas. I do also use mapping apps on my phone, but I've always been a map guy. Sometimes it helps to lay a full map out and see the larger picture, at least larger than you can get on a phone screen.
In case your wondering, AT has taken another 10 days off from preparing. Probably lying been on a bender since he's been able to get his Moose Drool at the gas station.

No reason to prepare when you're fishing for elk. That makes my head hurt figuring that one out.Printed unit map showed up in the mail today. Time to break out the markers and start marking areas.

Me too!! If I had a bucket list it would be full of 1 thing, that being an elk hunt out west.
I'm currently in recovery mode, transferred to a "stubby" diet to speed up recovery. I reckon that Colorado Kool Aid should heal me up pretty quick.In case your wondering, AT has taken another 10 days off from preparing.

Probably laced with liberalism now days. Might as well drop down across state line and pickup a sack of brownies. Make you feel better or don't care if your sick
