While filling out my Colorado sheep application yesterday I was thinking again about the reality of trying to backpack with my pacemaker. The strap pressure is a big problem. I basically shifted my hunt choices to easier terrain the last 7 years. But I really want to backpack again since a fire burned my favorite area in one state, including the TH and 90% of the 3 mile trail in. So I applied for two hunts there, despite not knowing if and how I can backpack 60# again. So I was wondering if someone makes a product for this or how they have overcome this. It's especially frustrating wanting to have a real BH sheep hunt but knowing I cannot realistically backpack to the extreme almost all the NR CO choices require. I ended up picking the unit 34 December archery hunt. Thx for any input.
On top of that was surprised when I got a bit nauseous at the top of Pike's Peak last summer for the first time. I had to lay down. Maybe because of my age (63), or Covid? Never happened before. Not a good omen for my any of these high altitude units I want.
