This is a fun episode. I am stoked to share Jenny's first elk story with you. Throughout this episode, we discuss our thought process for deciding where to go elk hunting. We evaluate the four critical parts of choosing a spot to hunt. Quality habitat, presence of elk, huntability and potential hunting pressure. All these factor into our decision-making process for planning our 2023 pack rafting adventure.
We discuss the pros and cons of hunting the three-point season versus the six-point season here in British Columbia.
Our evaluation and decision-making paid off, and we share a fantastic story of elk hunting on our pack raft adventure this year.
