Awesome notes so far. I like reading notes taken in the field as it happens.

Cleaned up and made it to the restarting. Ordered a vodka drink because I’m thirsty and a bottle of wine. Just soaking it all in and trying to enjoy some time to unwind.

That’s my hunt recap! I hope it gives a decent look at what goes in to one of these mountain hunts outside of the USA. I have truly lived a special and blessed life. I love the outdoors and fishing and hunting have meant the world to me and kept me out of trouble. I am extremely lucky to have a career that provides the funds to do these trips and a supportive wife. Thanks for following along!

As usual, great recap Doc! You do a dam fine job of note taking and it makes it feel like we’re on the mountain with you. Congrats on the slam!


If I may, I have to say I disagree with you on something. You have lived a great life that you earned and worked your tail off to have. For you to say lucky is downplaying what you do day in and day out, I highly doubt anything has been handed to you!
I, as well as many other guys on here, enjoy it and applaud you for what you do and the fun you have

Thanks for taking us along. Ready for the next adventure!

Well done young man!! I feel your pain on "the down parts"!!! They always killed me hunting the mountains, way more than I had ever thought they would!! Always enjoy following your hunts big or small!!

Travel safe back home and keep those babies coming so we can follow along with another hunt in the future!!!
