The Guides

These guys were ANIMALS! They went up and down the mountains like, well, young guys in great shape! Dan, on the left, was our guide, a 2-time World Champion elk caller. I only knew the other guys as "Sherpa" and "Yeti". The names fit. Dan hauled Dave's elk out by himself in two trips. He brought the other guides back with him and they helped pack mine out. I ended up carrying out a quarter plus the backstraps and tenderloins, plus my backpack and rifle. Oof-dah!
