Advice for and elk hunt

[BarryL]

My son and I are planning an elk hunt next season for when he finishes his 4 in the military. Spend about a week in the wall tent and it dont matter if its a 3 point or 6. A couple antlerless would do if nothing else. Just some enjoyable time together like we used to do. Any suggestions on a good are would be greatly appreciated.

Take the weather into consdieration I had a cow tag for the last part of sept,though we got a cow 1 evening home the next day and to the butcher the next morning we almost lost it to the heat even though we skinned a quartered it

Were pretty good at getting the meat out of the bush quick. I carry a quarte and he packs the rest. As weve neve rgone elk hunting before its more the "were do you go " that were interested in.

Region 4 is a good area especially around the Cranbrook area.
If you have never hunted Elk before you would be surprised at the weight of a hind quarter.....and heat was an issue this past September.
If you keep the hide on, this will help the meat from spoiling so fast in the heat (hint).

Your in PG, Chetwynd / Dawson Creek would fit you nicely. 3pt bull elk, cows open on the 15th of sept, spike fork moose & tri palm & 10+ per side open, deer with a bow....and only a short 3/4 hour drive.
