As long as the meat got cold who cares!!......have a plan to get it out, or bring a knife and fork! These quarters sat there for 3 days before I pulled them out late the last day of the season.

All good!
I think what he was saying was it was somebody else's elk he ended up pulling out when they never came back for it. Good on him.An observation, maybe put it in the shade and off the ground. But that’s just me.
My mistake and misunderstanding. I didn’t read it correctly. My apologies DW.

Those are a lot prettier than the ones out of the young cow I shot SaturdayI like to hang em in trees. Coyotes, ermine and other critters won't mess with em.

I misread your original post. My bad!It did, but I picked it up on my last trip out, on the last day. They weren't comin back, they ran out of gas packin out the hinds and the backstraps. Got a donation tag for my efforts, rather it went to a needy local family with 2 elk in my coolers, but here I am......but I agree with your sentiments.

Would love to know the story.
Me too.
Maybe the guy got hurt?
Maybe.
Maybe he has a Utah education and can’t count?
Maybe he couldn’t find his way back?
They were 3ft off a well beaten horse trail.
2 miles and plenty of elevation gain to the trailhead on a greasy horse trail is what leads me to believe he was gased. But I'll never know. There was also a backpack that looked loaded with gear a mile up the trail, I didn't stop to check it out. Related, or a different gased individual? Maybe bears got em both??
You know, if I was that guy I might be a little mad. He wasn’t lost. And good on him for turning the damn phone off.Likely those quarters belong to this guy:
A lost Colorado hiker who was gone for 24 hours ignored rescuers' calls because the hiker didn't recognize the phone number, officials say
The lost hiker apparently found their way and reached their car on their own, unaware that a search-and-rescue operation for them had been underway.www.yahoo.com
