I'd love to. When do we leave?

The east side of the Canadian Rockies are a great road trip.

... and there are trails and camping at all sorts of time/difficulty levels.

My uncle, talking about hunting Moose in Alaska, told me it would take him as many as 9 or 10 trips to pack the meat (and antlers) out to the nearest road. That's packing 100 to 150 lbs, over usually pretty rough terrain, so he'd take location into consideration before deciding whether to take the shot or pass.

And that's when the grand exodus began: moose family after moose family moving to the safer suburbs.

Go west, young moose!

I think maybe I should taste some to see if I like it first...

I've never been to the Canadian Rockies; they weren't exactly in my neighborhood, growing up. But they get my vote for a memorable birthday trip.

That looks good 'cept the critter hacking part ,, i'll pass on that

footfootfoot 12-01-2012 03:13 PM

I'm sure that isn't a required part of the trip.

I'm sure that's the guides responsibility. :) My BiL used to be a wrangler for an outfitter. They'd pack the meat out by mule and horse.

You can stay at home and go on a trip too.

Thinking is the best way to travel... but carrying a credit card is painful.
