After 5 days 4200 km and about 35 hours on foot I finally came across this second year bull. A bigger bull would of been better but with time running out my trip was comming to a end so I desided to take this fella hes not very big but sure is tasty. Dident see a lot of moose on my trip 4 in total I talked to a lot of people that were going home empty handed.

Didn't anyone tell you that you can't kill deer with match bullets? Never mind swamp donkies???

Good on you for not listening to those guys! Enjoy the steaks.

WOW good memory that was back on 09.

Im very impressed with the Sitka Gear im wearing the Downpour pants and jacket in the pic its basically just rain gear but I am looking at buying an insulated set either the incinerator or fanatic series IMO its the only way to go

Hard to forget a crazy sob carrying a 20 pound .338 through cut blocks looking for a moose :D

I run basically all Sitka too. I'm looking at the fanatic and the downpour as my next *investment*. How heavy is the downpour material? Like is it just a shell or is there a light layer of fleece in it?

We were there the middle of Oct. We had a large cow and young bull in two days. We saw 11 altogether but I think we were pretty lucky as a lot of hunters were giving the same reports as you. Did you shoot it off of one of the resourse rds? If so, which one? Congrats by the way.
