Thread: Chamois hunt in Austria

Yes, some places implied that severe bruising or injury would follow a misstep. Going down I must've weighed around 140 kgs (me plus backpacks/chamois), so the bergstock was an absolute neccessity - the ancles/knees just wouldn't safely balance that alone. Being able to lean and arrest into the terrain was extremely helpful. One of my main goals with this trip was to learn more about steep country hunting. (BTW the next episode will be the polar opposite, extreme flat/open country hunting) I tried to show it, but GoPro wasn't too good. Where I sit and tip the camera over the edge it was perhaps 10 meters down to the treetops below. I'll try and get a wideangle lens for next year to better show the proportions.
