--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Kinda last minute I know as I head up Friday, but here goes.

I have a 1st season elk tag and a second season deer tag and was not planing on heading home, but then I got to thinking? If I shoot an elk(please) opening day or early in the season I would have to keep it at camp for around 7 days give or take. I know the temps are not suppose to be to hugh but I hate to see meat go to waste.

So I got to thinking if there was a games processor in the craig area that would store my elk quaters for me....I do my own processing...just want them to keep it cool for me??

Any ideas.....might be cheaper to do that than drive all the way home???

Thanks, Marty

There is a game processing place in Baggs Wyoming just across the border. They have better prices for processing meat and do a better job. Not sure if they would offer the service you request but we go there everytime for meet processing when we get an animal and want to pay the money. When you get to Baggs stop at the gas station and ask for directions. It is just a block away from there.

The name is: Snake River Processing & Taxidermy

Their 22 year old son did the Taxidermy but he died this summer so now they ship it of to a guy in Cody. He is suppose to be world class. We sent off two antelop heads for him to do. It will be 10 months before we get them back.

Good luck. I hunted up there during the archery hunt but came home empty.

I've used Custom Quality Meats (1430 Yampa Ave, Craig - (970) 824-4668), right on Yampa Ave. (CO 13 north side of town). They've done a good job, don't know if they will store or not. I'll not be making the trip out this year(new baby), so let us know how you do. Good luck

+1 on Custom Quality Meats. Those guys did a fantastic job on my Elk one year. No saws just knives and they trimmed all the whole cuts, didn't just hack them off and throw them in a wrapper.

Plus 3 on Custom Quality Meats. Used them a couple of years ago on my deer and they were great.
