Awesome Philipo. I guess we'll just follow the piles of brass this weekend then... :-)

She's a neat spot alright, Greg's big guns would be right at home there.

I hope we do as well as you, last time we got the 'Big Four'!

Gregs stag. Taken at 830something yards. It also rolled and rolled down hill.

Out is up and we carried the meat up the worst of it and hung in a tree to recover in the morning.

Great trip guys and cool photos. 2 sleeps more and on the ferry. Starting to fizz lol

I think accomplishing the big four is key. On our last day last year we past on deer to get our chamois. Was worth it.
