Elk Hunt

So last weekend Kary went hunting with Clay. The hiked all over and never saw a single elk. At one point during the day Clay fell down while they were walking, and found out later he had broken his ankle in two places. (it is not safe for them to go out together I guess) So after 3 or 4 trips he decides that today is his lucky day...
He went by himself because evrybody else was busy. Just as it got light he sees a cow elk and takes his shot. One shot and it drops. Then he sees about 50 more run out of his little canyon (that he didn't even know were there). He finds it very easy, and starts the fun part. Did you know that elk have about 6 times the amount of blood as a deer? It takes a little longer to do the dirty work. The fun started when he was trying to figure out how to get this huge thing back to the truck when he was alone. Lucky for him his 4 wheeler has a wench on the front. He hoisted the elk up with the wench, and very carefully manuvered the bike right underneath it. (of course you just got the easy version) After "skillfully" loading it in the truck, he was ready to head home. Thank goodness the guy at the meat processing plant knew the tricks to unload. But the best part is- HIS FIRST ELK IN 25 YEARS!!!!
