Packing Recommendations
You will find that through careful packing you can bring everything you need and then some. If you have any questions regarding this please feel free to call. If you drive, save room to bring your meat and trophies home, because shipping costs can run as much as $2 a pound, Keep in mind, having your game processed will cost you about 45¢ a pound. We also work with an excellent taxidermist to whom your trophy can be delivered.
Get in Shape!!!
If you aren't now, try to get in good physical condition. The altitude and the demanding country will run you down fast. Nothing ruins a hunt faster than being out of shape. Walk up and down the stairs, take long walks with your day pack and hunting boots on. This will prepare your feet, back, and shoulders for exertions that you don't experience on a day to day basis.
Weather
You should plan for all kinds of weather. It can be 70° one hour and snowing the next. Mornings and evenings are generally cold, so dressing in layers is important. Fall weather in the high country is very unsettled with rain and snow showers being common. If you would like recommendations on clothing feel free to call. Your day pack should include at least the items mentioned above in case you are forced to spend the night away from camp.
