James and I helped pack out a moose today and his Cow last night...it has been a hard hitting 9 days for sure!

This will be our 5th animal since James has landed, so he has gotten the full Colorado experience!

All I can say us I'm blown away with my Kifaru Timberline 2, today I hauled 120 pounds of moose meat and gear and everything felt Roksolid, no shifting, no
Strap tear outs and the padding functioned properly leaving me with now soar/hotspots. Aron had 157lbs which consisted of an entire moose cape and the DT2 performed even better, Kifaru packs are truley the best in the world!

With that much weight and you guys act like its no big deal. Gotta get me a Kifaru! Congrats on the successful hunts and filling the freezers! I was asked in a conversation over the weekend if I have ever felt jealousy...boy have I ever and I think today more than most. Here I am stuck at a desk and you guys are living the good life! Keep it up so I can vicariously live through you. Thanks for the updates and amazing photos.

Great job and looks like an awesome time. Aron I was wondering what your thoughts are on the Vortex razor spotter that you were using for this trip. I am looking at that spotter and wanted to get some of your thoughts to help me make up my mind.

I don't think it can be beat for the money and I would compare it is comparable to the non HD Swaro.

I'm on the road, but feel free to call me if you wanna choot the chit about the spotter..... 720-937-1418

Awesome live hunts! I wish I could be in the backcountry as much as you Aaron. You definitely live life. If I was in the mtns as much as you, I would probably be paying child support.

Sure was a great trip with 4 animals hitting the dirt and plenty of hard earned miles in and out! Thanks again Aron for a little taste of Colorado, and we plan to keep everyone here entertained with a Live Wa Goat hunt in two to three weeks!
